Arson Suspect Captured After Dormitory BlazeArson Suspect Captured After Dormitory Blaze A 20-year-old male has been apprehended in connection with a fire that consumed a university dormitory in the early hours of the morning. According to authorities, the suspect was identified through video surveillance and witness accounts. He allegedly entered the dormitory at approximately 2:00 AM and set fire to a common area on the ground floor. The blaze quickly spread through the building, trapping dozens of students inside. Firefighters arrived within minutes and fought the flames for nearly two hours before bringing the situation under control. Thanks to the efforts of first responders, all students were evacuated safely without any major injuries. However, the dormitory sustained significant structural damage and is currently uninhabitable. The suspect was apprehended late last night at a nearby residence. He is facing charges of first-degree arson, a felony punishable by severe prison time. Investigators believe that the suspect had a personal vendetta against the university or one of its students. They are continuing to conduct interviews and gather evidence to determine the motive behind the attack. The university has expressed its gratitude to law enforcement for their swift response and the safe evacuation of all students. They have also activated crisis support services for students affected by the incident. The dormitory is expected to remain closed for repairs for the foreseeable future. Students who were displaced have been provided with temporary housing and support. The suspect is scheduled to appear in court later this week for his arraignment. The community remains on edge as they await further details of the investigation and the trial.
