Yesterday's 1605 Bellevue Fire Was Arson

So reports the Seattle 911 blog: "Late Monday, investigators said the blaze was deliberately set when 'combustible materials' were lit in a first-floor apartment." The resulting fire killed the building's last tenant, Ed Jackson, 89, on the day he was scheduled to move or be evicted. Commenter Jesse said yesterday the timing of this fire sounded fishy. Looks like he was right. The P-I has more details on the Capitol Hill fire here.
