Arson Suspected In Fires At Kellam Distributing
Two fires hit Kellam Distributing Co in Belle Haven Virginia early Sunday and Thursday causing extensive losses. About 100 barrels and thousands of cans of motor oil were destroyed along with milling machinery and flour. Estimated damages reach $560,000 in the first blaze and $140,000 in the Evans feed mill warehouse fire. Investigators say arson is possible in both incidents, found after midnight by a resident, but see no proven link between the two fires.
