ALLSTON, Mass. (WHDH) -- Fire officials believe someone intentionally set
fire to two cars in an Allston garage Sunday and believe the suspect is
attached to a string of previous arson attacks.
There have been a number of suspicious fires in Allston in 2012, but no
arrests have been made.
"I’m surprised, shocked, for this to happen in Allston," said a local
resident. “For this to happen here, I’m a little worried about it.”
The garage doors were closed and all that is left of the cars is charred
remains.
“On the right is a Honda Civic, on the left is an Acura,” said Steve
Macdonald, Boston Fire Department.
Damages total at least $50,000. But, nobody was injured and investigators
said this fire could've been much worse.
“If this had ever been a wood structure, especially adjacent to apartment
buildings, the potential was certainly there to be a much larger fire than
it was, “said Macdonald.
Exactly a year ago, the community saw a string of similar crimes. There were
never any arrests and investigators said Sunday’s blaze matches the
suspect's style.
“This does have similar patterns, in that the vehicles were off street,
they were unattended, it was the morning on a weekend. That sort of goes
with the pattern of the previous fires,” said Macdonald.
“Obviously they're upset by it, but they’re grateful no one was injured,”
said Macdonald.
Police and the Fire Department are requesting that anyone in the area at the
time or anyone who has information come forward. |
