Lafayette Woman Arrested For Arson
An arrest yesterday stems from a June 19th fire. 55-year-old Nancy Rogers of Lafayette was connected by investigators to a fire that took place at the Levy-East Bed & Breakfast in Natchitoches.
State Fire Marshal “Butch” Browning told KPEL that investigators spent three months looking into the fire at the B&B and concluded that it was intentionally set.
Evidence that was found allowed investigators to get a warrant and search Rogers' home. Further evidence was found there, leading to her arrest.
The fire caused extensive damage, at least half a million dollars according to investigators, however no one was injured as the property was not occupied at the time.
Police say that Rogers was seen at the Bed & Breakfast just hours before it went up in flames. She is currently being held with no bond on one count of simple arson.
