Fire at Snohomish apartment quickly extinguished
SNOHOMISH -- Police are looking into a suspicious fire that apparently was set outside a Snohomish apartment building early Tuesday.
A resident spotted the fire around 5:30 a.m. on the exterior of the building at the corner of Sixth Street and Avenue A, Snohomish Police Chief John Tuner said.
When firefighters arrived, the fire had been doused by a resident using a garden hose, Snohomish Deputy Fire Chief Ron Simmons said.
No one was hurt, and the small blaze caused about $1,000 damage, Turner said.
"The fire is clearly, without question, suspicious," he said.
