Fire investigators say they have questioned a “person of interest” in a weekend arson fire in Milo, Maine that burned a large portion of the town’s downtown.
But no arrests have been made in the Sunday morning fire that spread to five buildings and burned at least a third of downtown.
The state fire marshal’s office says the fire was intentionally set under a rear stairway outside of a building that house Hobknobbers Pub after the pub had been broken into.
