Arson
is the leading cause of property loss due to fire.
Over a half million arson fires, including
100,000 building fires, cost our nation more than
$2 billion annually and kill over 700 people.
It costs our communities so much more!
One-fourth of all fires are arson and over
one-half of them are set by juveniles. Arson
is a very serious crime and could be fatal.
Abilene may not seem like a large enough city to
have a problem with arson, but Fire investigators
from your Abilene Fire Department stay busy with
many duties, including arson investigation and
prosecution. If you have any information,
questions or concerns about arson, contact The
Abilene Fire Department at 325-676-6434
or Crime Stoppers 325-676-TIPS (8477) If you are
outside of the Abilene area, you can also contact the Texas Arson Hotline 1-877-434-7345
