Roanoke fire officials will be sifting through what's left of a Patterson Avenue house that was hit by fire yesterday.
Landlord Bill Lange believes someone may have set the blaze.
He says he had checked on an evicted tenant moments before he saw smoke coming from the building.
But one tenant says a faulty furnace may have been the cause.

Franklin Road in Roanoke has reopened between Second and Third Streets.
The area was closed for several hours last night as crew fixed a water main break.
But everything is back to normal now.
