State officials are asking the public to help them in their investigation of a fire at Beaver Lake early Saturday morning.

The State Fire Marshal’s Office says the fire, which broke out at around 4 o’clock Saturday morning, destroyed a Beaver Lake mobile home and burned nearly an acre of surrounding woodlands. The state investigator was called in by the Celestine Fire Department after Celestine firefighters responded to the scene, but could not figure out what caused the fire.

Now investigators are asking residents who may have seen any suspicious activity or have information on what happened to call the Indiana Arson Hotline at 1-800-382-4628.

Authorities are offering a $5,000 reward for any information in this case which leads to an arrest.
