A fire that destroyed a northeast Portland home and damaged two others may have been intentionally set Wednesday morning. Firefighters were called to the home on Graham Road near 151st Avenue just before 2:30 a.m. They had to quickly call out a second unit because the flames coming from the home were so big that they were spreading to neighboring houses.
The vacant home where the fire began is a total loss, and the fire was burning so hot that it melted the siding of a neighboring home.
