No injuries were reported in an overnight fire that damaged a building at a vacant DeKalb County apartment complex that has been plagued by similar blazes.

DeKalb fire Battalion Chief Christopher Morrison told Channel 2 Action News that the fires at the Colony of Stone Mountain complex on Chatfield Drive are suspicious.

“Within the last six months, we’ve come here several times,” Morrison told Channel 2. “We do have an ongoing investigation.”

The vacant complex is off North Hairston Road near Memorial Drive.
