Arson Suspected in Monday's Edgewood Fire

A fire inside an Edgewood home on Monday may have been the result of arson, state fire officials say.

Shortly before 8 a.m., a neighbor noticed a fire inside a two-story, split-level home in the 800 block of Fisherman Lane, according to a release from the Maryland State Fire Marshal's Office.

Harford County Fire & EMS Association spokesman Rich Gardiner noted in a post on the organization's Facebook page that crews from Joppa, Abingdon, Aberdeen Proving Ground, Bel Air, White Marsh, Fallston and Kingsville responded to the fire.

The fire caused about $160,000 in damage to the building, according to the release.

Investigators with the fire marshal's office believe the blaze was intentionally set inside, on the lower level of the home.

Anyone with information about this fire can contact the fire marshal's office at 410-836-4844.
