Arson is suspected at a Mendocino County location near Gualala that has seen four fires in three days. It all happened between Saturday and Monday at the same property in the 40400 block of Old Stage Road. The fires destroyed or damaged two modular homes, two recreational vehicles, a large boat and an outbuilding. A Ukiah Valley Fire Authority investigator found signs that an accelerant had been used. No one was found at or around the site after each fire. Investigators also say it doesn’t seem like someone was living on the property.
