A fire at a storage building in Banks County last week has been ruled a case of arson.

John King, Georgia's Safety Fire Commissioner, said the fire occurred on Friday, Nov. 8 at a location on Highway 198 in Baldwin. 

"The 200 square-foot, 15-year-old building was completely destroyed. The power was cut off to the outbuilding at the time the fire started," King said.  

He said the fire was contained to the outbuilding and did not spread to the residence on the property.

As with other arson cases, a reward is on the table for anyone who can lead authorities to the person or persons who set the fire. The toll free hotline for tips is 1‐800‐282‐5804.
