Investigators with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have classified Monday night's fires in Baltimore – including a blaze that destroyed a senior apartment complex – as arson, and are seeking help in solving the crimes.
The ATF has established a $10,000 reward for information in the fires, which ATF Special Agent in Charge William P. McMullan called "violent acts of arson committed throughout our city."
"Arson is a crime of violence and the individuals who committed these acts need to be held accountable for their dangerous actions," McMullan said in a statement.
The ATF is seeking information on multiple fires, including the Mary Harvin Center, a senior housing apartment complex under construction on North Chester Street. The developer said the complex was 45 percent complete when it was destroyed by three-alarm fire that engulfed the building and was visible from blocks away.

I thought they were “protests.”
How about acts of Terrorism? Nah blacks can’t do that can they. Just like they can not be racist.
Can't commit hate crimes either.
The person(s) who destroyed a senior complex and related health centers is wanted with a $10,000 reward.
Glad to see our governmental systems are working as normal.
Shooting a couple at the beginning of the riots, esp. those who firebombed police cars (why where they left unattended?), firetrucks, and stores, would have stopped this riot dead cold in its tracks, and I’m emphasizing “dead cold”.
I used to speak about riots and how they are either created, taken-over, and/or subsequently managed by black extremists, white communists, and some criminals.
If you know who is involved, you know where to look for them for either a grab & snatch operation, or a well placed shot. You don’t have to kill them in order to break up the mob and get control away from the professionals.
For arsonists, it is time that we actually shot and killed a couple. Would send a message that we are serious about this crime. World would get around faster than a mob looting a liquor store.
Our mayors are cowards, our police are led by eunuchs, the media is blind, stupid and incompetent, and the president is out playing with his putter.
........yeah right!
Any tip involving homosexuals, the transgendered, blacks, hispanics, muslims, the sexually confused, educated women and homeless people will be ignored.
We accept tips ONLY if they involve a white Christian man.
Who’d I forget?
10k, LOL
!!!
Homie make dat in a week sellin drugs !
I thought the new FR policy was to tag satire.
I am against arson, whether it happens in Baltimore or Waco...
How about no government benefits for 10 years if you are caught in a violent protest....
take their benes away and we might be able to control some of the bad behavior?
How is it that arson fires come under the jurisdiction of the ATF? Granted, they did have experience with the Waco fires but beyond that, what?
Maybe a molotov started these “fires”?
I'm guessing it's because they can be reliably counted on to make sure whatever information they get that implicates the wrong people never sees the light of day again.
These were crimes, but why put ATF on the job...?
By the way, these type of rewards are almost NEVER paid —they are paid in far less than 1% of the time they are offered AND info leading to an arrest does come in.
Even the couple who finked on the renegade black insane cop 2 years ago (the hunt for which saw Mexican women delivering papers in a truck at 4 am) were stiffed.
The couple called it in, and Da Gummint stiffed them.
Previous ATF: Supervises arson of structures crowded with people, but suppresses cross-border smuggling of machine-guns
Current AFT: Investigates arson of structures crowded with people, but performs cross-border smuggling of machine-guns
reading between the lines, I think I REALLY hear the chief saying...” shhh...we really don’t want to know who did it”....it would be so “messy” if they actually knew and had to prosecute one of the little darlings....
But getting the fed back in the tiny constitutional box it came in is hard when it takes so long for the question to be asked.
That should have been the first question.

Not only “protests” but “peaceful protests”. They would smile as they were beating the hell out of Whitey.
