Last weeks 500-acre brush fire in Ohio County, Kentucky could be a case of arson.
Emergency Management Director Charlie Shields would not elaborate on any suspicious activity, but he says the fire is currently under investigation.
Firefighters from eight departments worked to put out the fire that sparked near Rockport.
This was the third large scale fire in the area in August.
Emergency officials originally pointed to drought conditions as the cause.
