Fire Destroys Another Church

By Alabama Public Radio

Oakman, AL – A spokesman for the state fire marshal's office says investigators are trying to learn whether a fire that destroyed Tubbs Church of Christ was set intentionally or was an accident. The blaze destroyed the small church early Thursday morning in the Oakman community in Walker County. Authorities are still trying to determine how it started. It was the 15th fire at a rural Alabama church since February. Thirteen of those fires have been ruled as arsons.
