SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- A $3 million fire that destroyed a furniture company was likely related to its sawdust-venting system and not arson, fire officials said.
A four-alarm blaze Friday afternoon completely gutted Jeffrey Cobabe and Associates, a fine furniture maker that provides, among other things, furnishings for Mormon temples worldwide.
Investigators said they based their conclusion through eyewitness accounts of where the flames were first reportedly seen, but cautioned they may never know what exactly caused the fire.
Owner Jeffrey Cobabe has vowed to rebuild the business.
