CAMDEN, N.J — Camden's mayor has asked the state to investigate fires two days apart that red uced two abandoned warehouses and a score of other buildings to rubble.
Mayor Dana Redd said Monday she's asked the state Attorney General's Office to help because the similar blazes broke out within 36 hours. One was Thursday afternoon, the other started early Saturday morning.
Redd did not say whether there is any evidence that the fires are suspicious.
The attorney general's role in determining the cause is not exactly clear. The city and Camden County fire marshals already are working on the investigations, as is the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Camden Fire Chief Michael Harper said Monday that it could take weeks to determine a cause for any fire so big. Investigating two at the same time could take even longer.
