Police and fire department officials are investigating the possibility of arson in a small fire at a dental office in the 3400 block of South Alameda Street on Wednesday night. No one was reported injured. The fire department got the call at 9:35 p.m. Wednesday after police responded to a burglar alarm call at the same location about three minutes earlier, police said. Lt. Gary Hill said investigators are looking into the possibility of arson after firefighters at the scene found a broken window in the back of the building.
