COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSAZ)--The Ohio State Marshal has ruled that a fire at a South Point motel last month is arson.

The fire at the Grandview Inn happened in the early morning hours of April 19.

The Fire Marshal says the ruling is based on evidence found at the scene and through witness interviews.

One person was treated for smoke inhalation as a result of the fire.

Investigators are asking for anyone with information about the fire to contact the Division of State Fire Marshal at 1-800-589-2728.

A Blue Ribbon Arson Reward of up to $5,000 is being offered for the identification of the person or persons responsible for the fire.

LAWRENCE COUNTY, Ohio (WSAZ) -- Emergency crews are on the scene of a fire at the Grandview Inn Motel.

This is the complex on US 52 in South Point. Just before 5 a.m. the call came in that the motel was on fire.

Firefighters tell us there are no injuries being reported and the motel manager tells us people are being relocated to rooms that weren't damaged by the fire.

The fire has only affected one of the motel's buildings. This isn’t' the first fire at the Grandview. Back in 2005 a kitchen fire destroyed the restaurant and conference rooms.

There were no injures in that fire either.
