Fairground Fires Considered To Be Arson
Fire investigators say a three-alarm-fire Tuesday morning at the Kentucky State Fairgrounds is being investigated as arson. The likelihood that the fire was intentional came after it was discovered that a minor fire broke out at the grounds Monday afternoon but was put out and failed to be reported. Early Tuesday morning, four barns were destroyed and others suffered damage, estimated to be more than $1 million.
