TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — Investigators say a fire inside a landmark mosque in Ohio was intentionally set.

Little information was being released Monday about the fire at the Islamic Center of Greater Toledo.

The blaze broke out Sunday and caused both smoke and water damage on the second floor of the mosque that sits along Interstate 75 near Toledo.

The building's gold dome is visible for miles and is a landmark in northwest Ohio.

Authorities were not allowing anyone inside the building on Monday.
