Crime Stoppers Crime of the Week - January 21st, 2010

Hi, I'm Officer Butch Slater, Crime Stoppers' Coordinator for Sangamon and Menard Counties.

This week Crime Stoppers is seeking information about an Arson that occurred on Monday December 28th 2009 at 400 E. Jefferson. It was reported that a fire in the basement of the St. Nicholas apartments had been started in a trash can. When the fire department arrived on scene they noticed curtains on fire inside the trash can. After a preliminary investigation it was determined that the fire seemed suspicious. After contacting the building manger officers on scene were told that there have been several problems in the past with similar fires occurring. There were no witnesses to this incident and there were no injuries to report.

If you have information about this incident, you can remain completely anonymous by contacting Crime Stoppers at 217-788-8427 [1-800-397-2288], submitting a tip via the internet or using a cell phone to send a tip [type TIP672 plus your message and send it CRIMES(274637)]. You could get a cash reward of up to $1000.

Remember Crime Stoppers wants your information, not your name.
