(PENSACOLA, Fla.) - The state fire marshal's office says federal investigators will join an investigation into a suspicious fire that gutted a Florida Panhandle abortion clinic.

Lt. Kevin Fiedor of the state fire marshal's office said Monday that the fire early Sunday at American Family Planning in Pensacola largely destroyed the two-story building.

Fiedor says the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives would join the investigation Tuesday.

No one was injured. He says that so far there are no suspects.

Fiedor says the clinic had not reported any threats or criminal activity recently.

The clinic was bombed in 1984. In 1994, a doctor and a volunteer
who escorted patients were shot to death as they arrived.
