Police Seek Walmart Arsonist

Police are looking for a suspect who started a fire inside the  24-hour Walmart store in Fairfield early Monday morning.

Police and fire responded to the store at 2701 N. Texas St. at  3:25 a.m. after citizens reported a fire and explosions, Sgt. Troy Oviatt  said.

The building was evacuated, and it was determined a fire burned  through a wicker basket and caused several carbon dioxide containers to  rupture, Oviatt said.

No one was injured in the evacuation or explosion, Oviatt said.

Police released a video of the suspect who appears to be a  light-skinned young man or teen that is responsible for setting the fire,  Oviatt said.
