No CP police department, just PG County police.
Heard rumors of arson already yesterday. Other businesses on Rt. 1 have been burned by arson in the past decade.
I think arson is unlikely though because real estate is taking off in northern PG County. Appreciation of as much as 30 percent the past three years. This apartment fire is about two blocks from where the new Lidl supermarket is going and three blocks from the Purple Line.
