Authorities say three fires that broke out in Manchester, New Hampshire, in just over an hour were deliberately set, possibly by the same person or group.
District Fire Chief Jim Michael told the New Hampshire Sunday News that investigators are looking into a possible connection between the fires, which happened in different parts of the city between 11:30 Friday night and 12:40 Saturday morning. The most serious one involved an abandoned apartment building that neighbors long have complained about.
