An early morning fire destroys an abandoned home on Charleston's West Side and now investigators are digging deep to find out how it started.
It started inside an abandoned home on Grant Street around 4:45 a.m. on Thursday.
Firefighters say no electric was hooked up which leads them to believe it's suspicious. They also say they found holes that were cut out on the side of the home.
Investigators combed through the home for several hours in attempt to pinpoint how it could have started.
