The Levittown Fire Department responded to a suspicious blaze Sunday afternoon at Division Avenue High School. The school was vacant at the time, officials said, and no injuries were reported.
Just before 3 p.m., the department received a 911 call about smoke in the area of the concession stand at the school's football field. Officials said the fire caused more than $100,000 in damage to bleachers, a rubber track, gym equipment and the concession stand.
The fire remains under investigation, officials said.
