EL PASO, Texas (AP) — The FBI said a blaze that caused extensive damage to a Holocaust museum probably resulted from an electrical problem.

No one was injured in Monday's fire at El Paso Holocaust Museum & Study Center, said David Marcus, past president of the museum board.

"It appears the great majority of the exhibits, which were one of a kind in most instances, were destroyed," Marcus said. "It's hard to put a number on how much the exhibits were worth because most of these exhibits, they were all original and all real."
