Both the Hollister Police Department and Hollister Fire Department responded to a report of a Dumpster on fire in the 1500 block of Valley View Road, but no suspects have been arrested to this point.
The agencies responded to the blazes Aug. 27 at about 11 p.m. When fire officials responded to the scene, they reported seeing four or five male juveniles running away. Officials also reported finding containers in the area that smelled like they previously had a flammable fluid in them.
About 15 minutes prior to that, another Dumpster was set on fire at Sunnyslope School in the 1400 block of Memorial Drive.
Police said the cases could be linked because of the close proximity of the Dumpsters.
