CHIBA, Japan, Jan. 14 (AP) - (Kyodo)—Police suspect arson and possibly blackmail in connection with four mysterious fires at Tokyo University of Science's Noda campus in Chiba Prefecture that have occurred since mid-December, police sources said Wednesday.
The police said the first blaze occurred in the campus's No. 12 building around 11 a.m. Dec. 18 and burned some equipment and other materials in a lab in the building.
The three other minor fires took place Dec. 20, Dec. 22 and Jan. 5 in the same building, burning cardboard in the hallways and parts of the outer walls, they said.
The school said it received warnings about the fires but declined to comment, citing the ongoing investigation.
