Trio sought in connection with church fires
Law enforcement officials are seeking three men who resemble the above drawings. Anyone with information should immediately call authorities.
In a news conference held Friday, Feb. 12, by the ATF, City of Tyler Fire and Police Departments and other state and local agencies, sketches of persons of interest in the nine East Texas church fires under investigation were released.
Three individual sketches were provided to the media. Anyone with information regarding the identity of those pictured in the sketches is urged to call the church fire tip line at 888- ATF-FIRE (888-283-3473).
Tyler Police Chief Gary Swindle also encouraged local churches to check in with the police department if they have not already been in contact.
“We have more than 200 churches in Tyler alone,” Swindle said. “We are contacting each church in the community to establish a dialogue regarding the current situation. Any church that has not been contacted should call (903) 531-1096.”
