Firefighters rushed to the vacant home at 2828 Fulton St. Monday evening for the second time in as many weeks. 

When they arrived at 7 p.m., they found a small fire in the unlocked garage, where furniture and other household goods were stored. 

After the flames were quickly extinguished, investigators estimated structural damage at $2,000 and damages to contents were placed at $1,500. 

“We’re treating it as a suspicious fire because a week-and-a-half earlier, someone tossed a lit flare through the living room window and started a small fire,” said Deputy Fire Chief David Orth.
