The fire caused significant damage to the church. Representing the only Catholic place of worship in the city, community members stepped up to support the church as authorities searched for the arson suspect.
“CGPD has been working closely with the Casa Grande Fire Department and the ATF to complete this investigation. Detectives believe the person in this video is responsible for the crime,” wrote the Casa Grande police on Facebook.
Anyone with information on the case was asked to contact Detective Alex Teitelbaum, via email at alex_teitelbaum@casagrandeaz.gov, or by phone at 520-421-8711, ext. 6017.
