Fire investigators say a blaze that caused $250,000 damage at a building in Smyrna, Delaware was intentionally set.
The fire was reported about 2 p.m. Sunday at the vacant Smyrna-Clayton Sun Times building in the first block of West Commerce Street. Firefighters from four volunteer companies needed more than two hours to control the fire.
The Delaware State Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating the blaze.
