Arsonist targets Portland Fire Station on E. Burnside

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- The search is on for a person who set fire outside a Portland fire station while the crew was out battling another fire, damaging the exterior wall.

Late Saturday morning a man was seen "rustling around between some shrubs" as the crew at Fire Station 19, 7301 E. Burnside, was leaving on an emergency call, PF&R officials said. When the crew came back they smelled smoke and found a fire burning outside the station's windows.
