Not too far from where I live a house that have been for sale for over three years without selling, did catch on fire and burn to the ground in a matter of minute. Beore the fire department had a chance to get out there it was a smoking ruin. Fire departments these days are very busy. Police departments are swamped with information about fires of suspicious origin. Yes arson, is becoming the hottest crime in the country.
I often wondered with all those empty abandoned houses in foreclosure what would happen to the their hollow shells. The answer is they are being deliberately set on fire by vandals or gang members. The sheer number of unusual fires in my area has now seen a marked increase due to arson. A local insurance agent is saying that they will have to adjust the coverage policy as our towns and cities turn into an inferno.
