Boise police and fire investigators announced the arson determination in a news release Tuesday, four months after the Sept. 5 fire.

“We interviewed a number of vendors in the building and worked with a variety of outside agencies, including private fire investigation experts, to come to this conclusion,” Boise Police Fire Investigations Sgt. John Terry said in the release.

Romeo Gervais, deputy chief and fire marshal for the Boise Fire Department, said previously that the blaze began in the front section of the market.

The multicultural market was an incubator for 16 businesses. Many of the vendors were refugees from Middle Eastern and African countries. Some lost everything in the fire — except for large debts on loans used to purchase equipment, inventory and decorations.

“It’s heartbreaking to learn that someone set this intentionally,” market co-owner Lori Porreca said Tuesday afternoon. “It was bad enough for this to happen, but to find out it was arson makes it even worse.”
