Burglars Suspected in Fire at West 121st Street House
A three story residence at 162 West 121st Street caught fire last night, police suspect set by burglars. The unoccupied home, recently tied to Mrs. Arietta C. Reed who died February 10, had a bag of silver and valuables on the second floor. Firefighters found flames spread from a closet and extinguished with little damage. An intruder theory suggests a match dropped into the basement closet to mask entry, though the nephew of Mrs. Reed could not confirm any theft.
