MOUNTAIN HOME, Idaho (AP) -- Police have made an arrest in a southwestern Idaho grocery store fire that took place early Sunday morning.

Mountain Home Police Sergeant Frank Viola says James Greenfield turned himself in on Sunday night after police began searching for a suspect who broke into the store and set it ablaze.

Police and firefighters in Mountain Home went to Paul's Market after someone reported that the glass in the entry way had been broken. They found smoke coming out of the building but no one inside, and firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze.

Officials haven't released the extent of the damage.
