W.Va. State Fire Marshals seek information in Nicholas investigation
CHARLESTON, W.Va. – The West Virginia State Fire Marshal’s Office is asking for help as it investigates the recent arson of multiple structures on a Nicholas County property.
The incident occurred in the early morning hours of Tuesday, July 9 on 125 Whipperwill Rd. in Summersville. Two homes, and a mobile trailer were destroyed, while another open structure received less damage. This property is in a recently developed, remote location just off U.S. Route 19.
Investigators believe an unknown vehicle was on the property a couple of days before the fire occurred. That vehicle is described as a later model Chevrolet pickup truck, burgundy or maroon in color and with a black primer hood.
The vehicle’s driver is described as a heavy-set older man about 60 years of age while a passenger was believed to have a slim build and no teeth. Investigators seek to identify and speak with these two individuals.
