BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (WTNH) -- Police are examining a video posted on YouTube in which a teen admits to setting a massive fire in a Bridgeport factory.

In a 16-minute video posted on YouTube a teenage boy says he set the fire. At one point in the video someone says, "It all started with a cigarette."

It took crews three days to put out the fire at the old Nest Arts Factory on Hancock Avenue.
