UNF Dormitory Elevator Fire Intentionally Set | News

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A fire in a UNF dorm elevator was intentionally set, according to university spokesperson Sharon Ashton.

An email release from Ashton said the fire marshal made that determination after investigating what sparked a fire in the elevator of the  "R" building of the Crossings residence hall.

The university is on Spring Break but Ashton noted that there were a few students who were still in the building at the time the fire broke out.

Anyone with information on the arson should contact the University Police Department at (904) 620-2800.
