On October 19, 2003, at
0658 hours, Metro Fire personnel were dispatched to a single alarm
commercial structure at 4250 Sunrise Boulevard, Hammer's Auto World. Upon
arrival, firefighters found a well-involved single story commercial
building. The building was approximately 30' x 30' in size. It appears
that someone broke into and ransacked the business before setting fire to
the building. The building was destroyed and the fire damaged 9 to 11
vehicles on the lot. The vehicle damage ranged from extensive fire damage
to minor radiant heat damage. A witness viewed the suspect leaving the
scene in a 2000 black on black GT Ford Mustang convertible, which was stolen
from the auto lot. The vehicle license plate number for the Mustang is
4NFF586. The witness described the suspect as a white male in his mid to
late 20's with a shaved head and multi-colored tattoos on both arms. The
witness also observed the suspect leaving the scene alone.
