Three more fires overnight in Seattle's Greenwood neighborhood are arsons.
Fire Department spokeswoman Dana Vander Houwen (HOW'-en) says two fires were set about 11 p.m. Sunday behind a commercial building. They caused about $1,000 damage before they were put out.
She says the third fire was reported by an arson patrol in the area that smelled smoke about 4 a.m. Monday. It caused about $20,000 damage to the back wall of a restaurant, the Olive You.
Vander Houwen says there have been five fires in the neighborhood in two weeks and other fires were reported there in June and August.
The worst was a fire on Oct. 23 that destroyed four restaurants and cause $2 million damage.
