A fire was set at a South Florida church. The ATF, other agencies are offering a reward
Four agencies, led by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives, are offering a $7,500 reward for information leading to the arrest of the person who set a church fire in Hollywood.
The July 15 fire at Luther Memorial Lutheran Church, 1925 N. State Rd. 7, “caused significant damage to the structure,” the ATF said. Agents have surveillance camera photos of the suspect and say he left a red, plastic gas can behind.
The other agencies that contributed to the reward are Hollywood Fire Rescue, Florida Department of Financial Services and the Florida Advisory Committee on Arson Prevention.
Those wishing to give information can call the ATF at 888-283-3473 (ATF-FIRE), 877-662-7766 (NO-ARSON) or go to www.reportit.com.
