I put my foot in my mouth once in awhile and maybe I did here. If so, I'll apologize if the reasons for the fire happening was anything other than suspicious at best. I find it interesting though that at 4:30 p.m. a fire starts that is so far ahead of the fire department when they arrive the building is lost. While it may not be intentional it could passively intentional in that repairs to wiring and general building upkeep, such as cleaning the duct work over the grills of grease, behind the scenes was so tardy and ineffective a fire was allowed to happen in that regard. To me that means the owners don't give a hoot. With all the current rules in effect and inspections that occur it is difficult to imagine that the fire occured for reasons other than intentional in one form or another. It could be a disgruntled ex-employee also.

MikeP, I am sorry that my original answer is cynical, but it is based on a great number of years seeing buildings burned down and everyone elses insurance rates go up. Verry rarely does prosecution occur with arson. It is an extremely easy crime to commit and get away with. Maybe it wasn't in this case. I hope it was just a "normal" fire.
