TOWSON, Md. - A recent fire in which a firefighter fell through a floor and luckily came out uninjured has been ruled an arson.
Officials say the Baltimore County Police Department's arson squad is investigating the fire that happened Monday morning on Bellona Avenue in Towson.
In addition to investigating a fire at the home that appears to be intentionally set, they say they are also investigating a burglary at the home. There is a 2006 Porsche Cayenne reportedly missing.
The tags of the missing car are 584M126.
Arson investigators say an accelerant was used to start the fire and that the fire was set in two different locations in the home.
Anyone with information about this crime should call the Police Arson Squad at 410-887-4870.
