SUPERIOR, WI (Northern News Now) – The Superior Fire and Police Departments have increased their presence around an apartment building in the Billings Park neighborhood after a series of fires authorities believe were set intentionally.
According to the Superior Fire Department, they have responded to four fires at the Royalton Manor Apartments, located near North 19th Street and New York Avenue, since December 28th.
While the fires were small, no one was hurt, and there wasn’t any significant damage, Superior’s fire chief says his department believes each of the fires appear to have been started intentionally.
The Superior Fire Department fire investigators and Superior Police are actively investigating the incidents.
They did not immediately share any information on what led up to the fires or if they have any suspects. It’s also unclear if the fires were inside or outside the building.
Along with the increased law enforcement in that area, fire inspectors recently visited the building to ensure all fire protection and alarm systems are operational.
Anyone with information on the fires is asked to call the Superior Fire or Police Departments.
