A blaze in a vacant building Monday might have been started by homeless people to warm themselves, Fire Department spokesman Bob Collis said.

The one-story building at 22816 Vanowen St. in the Fallbrook Mall formerly housed the Kenny Rogers Roasters restaurant.
The total estimated loss was $250,000. No injuries were reported.
