Palmer Feed Offers $1,000 Reward for Info on Arsonist

Palmer Feed and Supply, located on 1318 North Chadbourne, is offering a $1,000 reward for information resulting in the arrest and conviction of arsonist(s) responsible for the round-bale fire that occurred in the late hours of May 21.

Video surveillance shows a male, wearing a light-colored t-shirt, with what appears to be a gas can.

"We were victim to this once before a couple of years back. At that time, it forced us to move the hay round-bales inside," says GM Winn Palmer. "However, with the severity of this drought, ranchers are in need of larger quantities than we can realistically store inside. This is an offense not only against Palmer Feed, but the surrounding neighborhood as well."

Persons with information are encouraged to contact the SAPD or the Fire Marshall’s office. The Fire Marshall can be reached at (325) 657-4358.
