The fire broke out at the home located in the 5300 block of North Truckee Street at 2:30 a.m. and spread quickly. Three adults were able to escape the house by jumping from an upper story but didn't suffer life-threatening injuries.

A large reward of $14,000 has been offered for information leading to an arrest. According to the bulletin, the fire appeared to be "deliberately set by unknown persons who fled the area." The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is working with Denver police in the investigation.

The Crim Stoppers number to call if you have a tip that might help police is: 720-913-7867
