The trains resumed service at around 3:45 p.m.

Investigators say the fire is suspicious after two abandoned buildings were burned.

Crews had to use miles of hosing to access working fire hydrants, which caused the light rail to be shut down.

Denver Fire officials acknowledge homeless seek shelter in the buildings at times, but it's not clear how the fire started.
