A fire that caused more than $100,000 damage at Naperville's Scott Elementary School is being investigated as an arson, police said Monday.
Cmdr. Mike Anders said investigators have interviewed several students and staff members at the school at 500 Warwick Drive.
He said the initial probe was handled by a joint team of police officers and firefighters, but police took over once it was determined a crime was involved.
Scott students and faculty had to be evacuated about 9:30 a.m. Friday after a fire began in the boys washroom and destroyed a toilet paper dispenser and stall partition.
No one was injured, but smoke spread throughout the building and caused extensive damage.
