Police said on Feb. 2, they torched four different buidings in just three hours, including Billie Mohr’s. She and her fiancé are legally blind.
The trio used an accelerate to burn down this vacant home, police said, and they said they know that because according to this criminal complaint, all three of them confessed.
State police said the three men hit two other houses and listened on the scanner as crews arrived to put out the fires.
Mohr might not have much damage, but said that night she lost her sense of security.
All three suspects were taken to jail. They will have a hearing sometime next week.
