Another suspicious fire strikes in Hinton


A state fire marshal is on the scene of an early morning fire in Hinton that destroyed an abandoned trailer.

Fire Marshal Scott Rodes said the blaze appears to be another in the long string of arson fires that have plagued the river town for more than a year.

The call for the blaze at the trailer located on Grace Street came in after 5 a.m.

Rodes said his investigation is continuing.
