Authorities are investigating a locker fire that evacuated a Vacaville high school Thursday morning and launched police into a search for the firebug.

The blaze broke out in the boys locker room at Will C. Wood High School around 10:16 a.m. and is being treated as “suspicious in nature,” said John Jansen, Vacaville Fire Department battalion chief.

The school’s new fire-alarm system sounded as smoke began to spill from a locker and fill the room. The school was quickly evacuated and the students moved to safety as fire crews responded to the campus, Jansen said.
