EL CAJON, Calif. (KGTV) - Authorities are trying to determine if a fire that started at an El Cajon warehouse Thursday night was started intentionally.
Heartland Fire & Rescue officials said they received a call about a structure fire at a warehouse on 920 El Cajon Blvd. around 9:15 p.m.

During the firefighting effort, a man suffering from burns on his body walked into a nearby Walmart and was eventually transported to the hospital.
