Las Vegas, NV (KXNT) - Fire investigators say that arson was the likely cause of a Sunday night fire inside the Walmart location at Charleston and Decatur.
One person suffered minor injuries after falling when shoppers were forced to evacuate the store.
The fire broke out in the paper towel aisle just before 8pm Sunday. Store sprinklers put out most of the fire, with responding crews handling the rest.
Damage was estimated at $200,000, mostly due to smoke damaging items in the store. Structural damage was estimated at less than $10,000.
Investigators will be talking with people who were in the store at the time that the fire broke out, and will be looking at store surveillance video as well.
