A fire broke out inside a northeast Atlanta Target on Peachtree Road late night Tuesday, officials said.
Firefighters were called to the store located at 3535 Peachtree Road. Within four minutes of their arrival, the fire was already put out by Target employees.
Officials determined that the fire was “intentionally set” inside the store, prompting them to launch an investigation. In January, another Target just minutes up the road in Buckhead was also set on fire. The store recently reopened after officials said it was a part of a string of arsons at several Atlanta Walmart and Target stores.
Authorities have been trying to identify two persons of interests in the string of arsons, but had no luck so far.
However, investigators do not believe that Tuesday's fire was connected to the others.
