Investigators are sifting through the charred remains of a North End duplex this evening after a suspicious fire Wednesday.
Firefighters were called to the 400 block of Boyd Avenue in the early evening after a blaze broke out in the second-floor suite of a duplex.
Fire was contained to that suite, which had been vacated earlier in the day by tenants.
Damage has been estimated at $100,000. There were no injuries.
