Serial arsonist loose in Dekalb co. Metro Atlanta
2025-03-02
It seems a person or persons have set a series of building on fire.

At last check, 3 FD stations involved and responding.

Looking for more current video now.
[MSN] Crews are currently battling a massive fire that started at a tire shop in DeKalb County, but quickly grew on Saturday afternoon.

DeKalb County fire officials confirmed to Channel 2 Action News that a portion of Covington Hwy. is closed near Panola Road while firefighters work.

Fire officials say it started as a car fire at a tire shop, but quickly grew to a grass fire and took over two storage sheds on the property.

There is no word on any injuries.

This comes as all of north Georgia remains under a Red Flag Warning for high fire danger because of dry air and gusty winds, meaning that fires could quickly spread.

The warning lasts until 8 p.m. on Saturday.
