Fort Mill home damaged by fire; police say arson investigation underway
Police in Fort Mill are investigating a house fire Thursday as an arson, officials said.
A home in the 1200 block of Lily Lake Lane sustained heavy damage from fire and water, said Maj. Bryan Zachary of the Fort Mill Police Department.
Police, including detectives, were called to the scene after 12:30 a.m. shortly after the fire was dispatched, Zachary said.
No one was in the home at the time of the fire and no one was hurt, Zachary said.
Officers remained on scene Thursday and are investigating the fire as an arson case, Zachary said.
“All indications are it was an intentionally set fire,” Zachary said.
Later Thursday afternoon, Fort Mill police put out a social media message on the agency’s public Facebook and Twitter. The message said police were seeking home surveillance footage in the area as officers look for a white SUV that may have been in the area.
The home is in the Waterside by the Catawba neighborhood.
