Clues sought to arson fire at truck firm

12/7/2002

Lake Township police are seeking information about an arson at Mcllvaine Trucking, Inc., where three tanker truck cabs were set on fire Sunday. Damage was estimated at $275,000.

Firefighters arrived at the company, 30559 Lemoyne Rd., about 4 a.m. and found the cabs burning. But they had to wait to extinguish the fires until Toledo Edison shut off power because electrical lines had fallen on the company's fence, police said.

No one was injured.

Investigators found an accelerant at the scene.

Anyone with information should call Lake Township police Detective Mike Leslie at 419-838-6651.
