BRUNDIDGE, Ala. (AP) - The state fire marshal's office says a
fire at a go-kart manufacturing plant in Pike County last week was
caused by arson.
Steve Holmes, a spokesman for the fire marshal's office, said
Tuesday inviestigators have discovered the origin and cause of the
blaze at the Carter Brothers manufacturing plant, located off U.S.
231 in Brundidge.
No one was in the building at the time of the fire and there
were no injuries.
The fire marshal's office says the blaze caused between $16

family-owned business employed about 65 people. The company
manufactures go-karts and distributes scooters.
