Fire Dep Div-11 has placed this fire as a 10-41 Code-1 (suspicious fire).
Non jews have been living in the house. The reason why it was placed as a 10-41 code1 was because there were drugs being grown on the top floor. It seems like the fire department stumbled onto something illegal. P.D., the D.E.A., and the F.B.I. was called to the scene. P.D. reported that the amount of drugs found in the apartment was worth aproxx. $50.000
