Here is the Oceanside news report...

Arson Suspected In Oceanside Manufacturing Plant

Last Updated:

Officials say Tuesday morning's industrial fire at an Oceanside spa manufacturing plant was sparked by an arsonist.

The fire broke out in the 300 block of Via Del Norte. Ten engine companies responded to the fire at a spa manufacturing company. Crews put out the blaze quickly, but remained on the scene to watch for hot-spots.

Hazardous materials crews were called in to help because there are chemicals at the Oceanside plant, which are used to make the spas.

Fire officials are still investigating the cause of the fire.

I can account for my whereabouts, and my whenabouts.

It's the whoabouts which have me worried.

Was this in CA?

That's in Oceanside, CA, right north of San Diego. Never heard of them, but that's where that address is. I bet that was one nasty fire and some might thick smoke...

Lets see if they rebuild.  I worked for a company back in the early 80s that our Florida division had a fire that was suspected Arson.  When they found out they were going to rebuild, they didn't push the investigation too far.

Wow - look at how poorly organized the place is: stuff all over the floor. No wonder it went up in smoke...
