A car fire that occurred Tuesday afternoon in southeast Topeka has been ruled intentionally set. Topeka Fire Marshal Todd Harrison said crews were sent around 4:30 p.m. Tuesday to 4000 S.E. Adams on a report of a vehicle fire. Upon their arrival, crews found flames and smoke coming from an unoccupied car. Firefighters were able to keep the blaze contained to the car, Harrison said. A preliminary investigation determined the fire was incendiary, or intentionally set. The estimated loss was $1,500, all of which was to the vehicle. The Topeka Police Department also responded to the scene. No injuries were reported.
