Authorities are investigating a series of suspicious fires at an apartment complex in northwest Oklahoma City.
The Lanatana Apartments near NW 10th Street and Council Road caught fire for the third time in a week-- first on August 29th, then on Saturday, and again on Sunday.
Officials believe the fires have been set by copper thieves, because they found a stripped electrical box nearby. Officials say thieves sometimes burn the wires to strip off the covering.
Authorities haven't identified any suspects.
The complex has been vacant for more than two years.
