LANCASTER -- The Lancaster County Sheriff's Office has made an arrest in a fire last month that destroyed a strip mall, according to WSOC-TV, The Herald's news partner.

Authorities have not released the name of the suspect who was arrested last week, saying they're close to making another arrest in the case and don't want to jeopardize that, WSOC reported Wednesday.

The Nov. 6 fire, which authorities believe was set, destroyed a barber, a flower shop, an auto glass business and a swap shop at the Pitmon Place building, causing $300,000 in damage.
