LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL
The Henderson Fire Department is investigating two "suspicious" fires that kept firefighters busy early Friday morning.
Both fires were near the intersection of Candelaria Drive and Fletcher Road, which are residential streets near Serene and Eastern Avenues, officials said.
The first began about 1:40 a.m. in a single-family home. The blaze was extinguished in about 15 minutes and caused about $5,000 in damage.
About 4 a.m., firefighters were called back to the area and battled a fire at a second residence. The home was badly damaged from smoke and fire. It took firefighters about an hour to control the blaze, which caused $50,000 in damage, officials said.
Both structures had been abandoned and are being investigated, officials said.
