Aggravated Arson Charge

Officials says 20-year-old Terry Slaughter started a fire in the back bedroom of a duplex on Bradt Street earlier this month, and then left.

Firefighters soon arrived and took care it.

No one was hurt, but damage was estimated at 39-thousand-dollars.

Investigators say his motive was that he was mad at his landlord for being evicted.

Slaughter faces an aggravated arson charge because the fire threatened other people’s lives.
