Investigators have ruled that the fire was not the work of arsonists, as it was first believed.

The shed, located in the 400 block of Sterling Street in Staunton, caught fire around 1:30 a.m. Friday.

The shed burned completely to the ground.

Early reports from firefighters say neighbors saw someone running away from the yard.

However, electric running into the shed is now thought to be the cause.
