Fires On Green Mountain Believed To Be Suspicious

LAKEWOOD, Colo. (CBS4) - Monday's fire on Green Mountain in Lakewood, as well as others, appear to be suspicious, investigators say.

In total, five fires occurred on Green Mountain in November.

All but one were an acre or less in size.

That one bu rned nearly 100 acres Monday night, forcing homeowners to evacuate.

No structures were burned and no one was injured in that fire, or the four others, but because of dry conditions and gusty winds, there is a concern additional fires could be worse.

West Metro Fire Rescue investigators are asking anyone who sees anything suspicious, or knows anything about the fires, to contact them at (303) 987-7111.

Callers can remain anonymous.
