(Deming) – A fire that engulfed a double-wide mobile home early Sunday morning off East Maple is being investigated as arson.
Deming Police Chief Brandon Gigante said his officers secured the mobile home at 1104 East Maple until the State Fire Marshall could arrive to investigate the suspicious blaze.
Gigante said no injuries were reported and it appeared no one was home when the fire started at about 4 a.m.
However, witnesses said a dark-colored pickup was seen leaving the area east-bound at a high rate of speed just before the fire was detected.
The investigation continues.
