WEST HOLLYWOOD, LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Authorities investigated an arson attempt at the Kardashian-owned boutique Dash in West Hollywood early Tuesday morning.

Los Angeles County fire officials initially said one person was taken into custody, but county sheriff's officials said no arrests have been made.
