Eastern Shore Arsonist Sets 25th Blaze

$5,000 reward for information

Police are investigating two Monday evening fires as possible arson cases on the Eastern Shore.

Sgt. Michelle Anaya with the Virginia State Police said troopers confirmed the 25th arson on Whites Neck Road in Accomack County. The call for the fire went out between 7:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. for a fire at an abandoned structure Sunday night.

"It's awful," Accomack County resident Ira Ashby said. "The community is at bay, so to speak. Everybody is tense as to whose property they will strike next."

Every citizen with a trail cam, take it to the nearest abandoned structure and set it up at the driveway to it. The next fire, the cam will have a license plate number and a photo of the perp.

DUH.

sounds a little fishy to me , can't believe that the law doesn't have a clue! Well maybe they don't , law inforcement isn't what it used to be since we hired criminals as cops.

I agree, I bet it is a volunteer fireman doing these arson fires.

leave him alone, he is ridding the shore of old abandon buildings that are an eyesore anyway, and it gives the fireman something to do.
