Fire officials in Beaver Dam say a four-alarm fire that engulfed the Charter Raceway Park may have been caused by arsonists.

Damage is estimated to be around half a million dollars.

The blaze started around 4:30 Sunday afternoon near the Grandstand of the car-racing stadium.

The Dodge County Sheriff says the fire appears to be suspicious. He says witnesses reported seeing one or two men run from the scene just before the fire was reported.
