NORTHAMPTON, Mass. (WWLP) - Northampton Fire Chief Brian Duggan told 22News that two people are dead after a series of eight separate fires that occurred early this morning within a half mile radius of downtown.
Four of the fires were in buildings; the other four were car fires. They are being called suspicious at this time and police are searching for suspects.
Chief Duggan said crews are searching for two people who have not been accounted for. Those people may have lived in the one of the homes that was on fire. It is not clear at this point if they were inside at this time.
The first fire was reported just before 2 a.m., the last call came in at 3:13 a.m.
A total of 14 fire departments assisted, many are still at the locations of the fires.
Northampton Police Lt. Richard Rodalski told 22News they do not have a description of the suspect.
