🚨 Do You Have Information About a Possible Arson? 🚨

A statewide Arson Hotline, (800) 252-2947, has been established so citizens can anonymously provide information about a suspicious fire that has occurred — or may occur.

🔥 Arson puts lives, homes, businesses, and first responders at risk.
👀 If you see suspicious activity, report it.
📞 Tips can remain anonymous.

If you see something, say something.
