The New Castle Fire Department responded to another suspicious fire early yesterday.
A Lawrence County dispatcher said the blaze broke out at 4:43 a.m. at 826 Morton St., an abandoned house that was the site of another suspicious fire Aug. 12.
According to Assistant Chief Mark Panella, when city firefighters arrived, the door to the house was open and small fires were burning in each of the rooms on the first floor.
Firefighters said they detected an odor of gas.
It took little time to extinguish the fires, Panella noted.
“We got there early,” he said. “We were dispatched at a quarter to five and were out of there by a quarter after 5.”
According to Panella, the fire was reported by a next door neighbor who woke up and saw smoke.
