Fire investigators in Gwinnett County are looking into if a fire in a Lilburn home might have been set intentionally.
Lt. Colin S. Rhoden with Gwinnett County Fire and Rescue tells FOX 5 News that they were called out to the 1300 block of Martin Nash Road just before noon Saturday after a passing motorist saw smoke coming from the home.
Firefighters, while fighting the fire, found one person inside. They were treated and transported to an area hospital.
Investigators say the fire was contained to one room towards the back corner of the house. They are trying to determine if this was a work of an arsonist.
