Reward Offered In Arson Cases

The State Fire Mar­shal is now inves­ti­gat­ing two fires that were inten­tion­ally set. Inves­ti­ga­tors have ruled an aban­doned house fire and a barn fire recently, both on Ful­ton County Road 12 in Wauseon, were cases of arson. The fire at the house was reported around 3am on Mon­day. The barn fire was one week ear­lier just after mid­night. Now, a reward of up to $5,000 is being offered by the Blue Rib­bon Arson Com­mit­tee for infor­ma­tion lead­ing to the iden­ti­fi­ca­tion of the per­son or per­sons respon­si­ble for the fires. Any­one with infor­ma­tion is asked to con­tact the State Fire Marshal’s Fire and Explo­sion Inves­ti­ga­tion Bureau at 800–589-2728.
