University of West Georgia authorities are investigating a string of suspected arsons in a campus dorm.
Director of Public Safety Tom Mackel says all three fires were set within weeks of each other in the middle of the night in Downs Hall. Students found the blazes and put them out before they could cause much damage.
Mackel says no injuries have been reported so far.
The university police, the Carrollton, Ga., Fire Department and the Fire Marshal Division are investigating the fires.
