ATF is offering a $5,000 reward in the arson fire of an Indianapolis Metropolitan Police officer’s home on Sept. 20.
Authorities say someone set fire to the home shortly after 1 a.m. on Chateaugay Drive while the officer and his family were inside. All escaped unharmed.
The home was destroyed and damages were in excess of $100,000, ATF said.
“This act of violence endangered a police officer and his family. Thankfully no one was injured by this cowardly violent act,” Chris Sadowski, special agent in charge of the ATF office in Columbus, Ohio said in a statement.
