FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Tulare County firefighters say someone making hash oil apparently sparked a blaze that destroyed two outbuildings. It happened before 9 p.m. Saturday on Avenue 322 near Dinuba Boulevard; that's just north of Visalia.

Firefighters say the suspects ran from the scene before they arrived, so no one has been taken into custody, and there are no reports of any injuries.

Crews got the flames under control in less than an hour. The investigation is still ongoing.
