Four more Pa. fires ruled arsons

(CNN) - Four more fires were deliberately set early Saturday in an area
of eastern Pennsylvania plagued by arsons, authorities said.

The residential fires occurred from 12:35 a.m. through 7 a.m. Saturday in
Chester County, Pennsylvania, according to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives. A county task force declared the blazes, on the front
and side porches of homes, were arson, officials said in a statement.

The area, near Coatesville, Pennsylvania - about 40 miles west of
Philadelphia - has been beset by a string of arsons.
