Santa Monica police were seeking the public’s help Thursday night in identifying three suspects wanted in connection with an arson fire.

The blaze broke out shortly before 2 p.m. on Monday near an alley in the 600 block of 11th Street. The fire damaged a residence and property owned by a utility company, the Santa Monica Police Department said.

“Numerous surveillance cameras in the area captured the subjects in the alley running from where the fire had started,” police officials said of the suspects.
