Motorcycle shop burns

Fire officials are trying to determine what caused a blaze at a motorcycle shop in northeast Houston early this morning.

The blaze broke out at about 4 a.m. at the business in the 8200 block of East Tidwell near Mosswood.

Firefighters extinguished the blaze quickly, but there was heavy damage to the small structure. No injuries were reported.


Anyone know anything about this?
 
(From elsewhere) The hunt is on for whoever torched a motorcycle shop in northeast Houston.
It happened around 4am at the Southern Hoggin bike shop on Tidwell near Greenwich. Authorities say at least two Molotov cocktails were thrown into the business. The fire burned the store's office and a nearby structure.
Arson investigators are now on the scene, examining those makeshift fire bombs.
 
I had to look that up, never heard the term before.

urban dictionary said:
Supposed cause of fire deliberately arranged by the owner to burn down a property or business in order to benefit from insurance money or similar, such as destruction of documents and records.
