by KYW's Al Novack

Police, state, and local fire marshalls are investigating two more suspicious fires in Coatesville (Chester County, Pa).

Since the beginning of the year, there have been five fires in the community that have been labeled arson.

The two latest fires were both reported around 2am on Monday within two blocks of each other.

Initially, both appeared to have been set intentionally on front porches of homes. One fire was reported along North Church Street and the other blaze was discovered at a home along the 200 block of Madison Street. 

No one was hurt and both fires were quickly extinguished.  As of 7am, no one had been arrested in connection with any of the fires.
