Deputies Seek Two Arsonists

February 27, 2014

The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office is looking for at least two people  that intentionally set fire to the Alfred Washburn Center at 31 Murphy Lane in Pensacola back on December 9.. The facility provides food, clothing, shelter, and other items to the homeless population in the area.

At least two people were involved with this arson, according to investigators.

Wednesday, investigators released a photo that shows one suspect in the case.

Anyone with information on the crime is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (850) 433-STOP. An additional 5,000 reward is available through the State Fire Marshal’s Office.

    492scj: I would put my money on disgruntled “clients” many of them are not playing with a full deck. I know where the Washburn Center is and there is not much of a neighborhood there.

    Yeah the crime stoppers is unreal. They have a built in way so they CANNOT see your name. Just give the tip, get the code, if the tip leads to arrest you get $$$ no one ever sees your name, no one ever sees you. Also if they happen to have an illegal gun or drugs on the you get MORE money! It can pile up lol I wish my area has it. I would have used it already!!!

    You don’t even have to give them your name…they will give you a number and you can collect a reward! Someone out there knows who this guy is!

    Perhaps at least two people do not want a homeless support facility in their neighborhood.
