doesn't look like this one was arson tho. they're saying one of the sanders accidentally ignited some magnesium dust. that's what one of the companies in the building works with. there were almost 50 people in the building at the time, so if somebody set fire to it then they would be a pretty shitty person. one of the workers inside ended up in the hospital.
