The (Longview) Daily News reports the fire that destroyed a downtown Toledo warehouse in August was an arson.

The building belonged to volunteer Firefighter Nicholas Delin, of Toledo, who had recently shut down Toledo Hardware around the corner.

News reporter Natalie St. John writes that Toledo Police Chief John Brockmueller reported to the city council the Seattle-based company which investigated the blaze concluded it was likely started by an arsonist; and that the chief has several suspects.
