Arson is suspected in three Rutherford County structure fires early this morning (7/12/2013). One question: was an arsonist igniting the flames while firefighters were extinguishing another nearby blaze? 

Rutherford Fire and Rescue arrived shortly after midnight at an abandoned mobile home at 3016 Factory Road. While battling that fire, firefighters spotted another blaze at an abandoned home on the same property. Then after that, they saw flames at an out building. 

The out building fire was extinguished so quickly, they found newspapers that were rolled and placed under the door and ignited. 

Stay tuned--WGNS will keep you informed on this story that is in progress.
