Pittsburgh Public Safety tells KDKA Radio that the fire had been set on the rear porch of the property on the 100 block of North Dithridge Street.<\/p>\n
The fire was made up of twigs and brush and had gone out by the time it was found.<\/p>\n
Officials say here as no property damage done, since the fire was set on a stone porch.<\/p>\n
A suspicious suitcase was left behind, but it was later determined to be filled with women\u2019s clothing.<\/p>\n
The Fire Investigation Unit is working to review any camera footage from the area.<\/p>\n
The investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n
The Bishop\u2019s mansion was put up for sale by Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh after then-Bishop David Zubik moved out.<\/p>\n
After he was appointed Bishop nearly 20 years ago, Zubik moved out after only two weeks in the residence.<\/p>\n
Current Bishop Mark Eckman lives in the Bethel Park area at Resurrection Parish. <\/p>\n
The property was sold in 2009 to a private trust.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pittsburgh Police and Fire responded to a small fire outside of the old Bishop\u2019s mansion on Monday.
