Is There An Arsonist Loose in Niles?

Fremont Fire Dept. crews responded to the same lot on Niles Blvd last night twice.  The first call was just after 8 p.m. where an RV caught fire and torched off some nearby grass, brush and a few trees.  Two hours later, on the same property but further east, a fire broke out in the vegetation.  A shack on the property was threatened with flames under the eaves.  Per radio traffic, arson investigators from both the fire department and police department were requested.  A drone was active to search the grass area for any suspects.  As of this writing there has been no information pushed out by either FPD or FFD regarding this incident.
