Residential fires under investigation

WESTVILLE — The Holmes County Sheriff’s Office, along with the state Fire Marshal Bureau of Fire and Arson Investigations, are investigating a series of fires at a residence in northern Holmes County from July 10, July 13 and Aug. 7.

The Holmes County Communications Center received calls about fires at the residence located on County 163 in Westville, according to a news release. During the investigation, arson was suspected and a suspect was identified.

Detectives from the State Fire Marshal’s Office and investigators from the Sheriff’s Office interviewed the suspect, who admitted to starting all three fires from inside the residence. The suspect was transported to a mental health facility for treatment, but HCSO did not release the name of the suspect Tuesday. The investigation continues.
