Suspicious fire causes $1 million damage to Poulsbo Wal-Mart

A suspicious fire at a Wal-Mart store caused more than $1 million in damage, the Poulsbo Fire Department estimated.

POULSBO, Wash. -- A suspicious fire at a Wal-Mart store caused more than $1 million in damage, the Poulsbo Fire Department estimated.

Most of the damage came from thick smoke that filled the store.

The fire started just before 9 p.m. Thursday in a rack of women's undergarments. Employees kept the fire under control with extinguishers until firefighters arrived.

No injuries were reported.

The Kitsap County fire marshal was checking surveillance tapes to investigate how the fire started.
