On November 11, at about 1AM, the Pullman Fire Department was dispatched to a fire alarm at Regents Hall in Pullman. The fire, which was in a trash can, activated the fire sprinkler system. Damage to the facility was primarily water damage. The fire appears to have been set deliberately. A suspect is believed to have run away from the scene at the onset of the fire, activating blue light phones as he made his way across campus. Additional people may be involved.

Witnesses continue to come forward providing valuable information. Police are investigating all leads. Anyone with information is asked to call the WSU Police department at 335-8548

The three sections of the Regents Hall complex are equipped with separately zoned fire alarms and sprinkler systems. The Fire Marshal evaluated the functionality of these systems and credited the sprinklers with extinguishing the fire.

Another fire alarm at Stephenson South activated at about 2 AM and was caused by popcorn left to burn in several microwaves on various floors. This incident is being investigated concurrently with the Regents incident to determine if they are related. Anyone with information is asked to call the WSU Police department at 335-8548

Arson is a Class A felony that carries significant criminal penalties.
