The Macoupin County Sheriff’s Department would like help in solving a suspicious fire. On April 30, 2012, at approximately 11:30 p.m., the Macoupin County Sheriff’s Department was dispatched to a report of two residential type trailers on fire on Foster Street in Plainview.
Upon arrival, the officer observed two residential type trailers sitting side-by-side with extensive fire damage. The Shipman Fire Department was attempting to extinguish the fire. Due to the fact that one burnt gas can had been located in the roadway, it is believed that if any person had been handling the can they may have sustained burns to their body.
Anyone with information that would help solve this, or any other crime, please call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-352-0136. You can also submit an anonymous tip online at www.macmontcrimestoppers.com or use your cell phone to text information by entering “TIP722 and your message” and send to CRIMES (274637). In doing so you could be eligible to receive a cash reward of up to $1000.
Please remember, Crime Stoppers wants your information, not your name!
