PHOTOS: Kevin Lee Spielman was arrested on Tuesday, March 26 following an extensive investigation into the fire inside the former Snooks Poultry on Sunday night. First responders from multiple agencies rushed at approximately 6:30 p.m. on March 24 to the building on West Baltimore Street, where firefighters were met with smoke and flames coming from the building. It took nearly 100 firefighters several hours to battle what was described as a "stubborn blaze," two of whom suffered minor injuries and have since been released from area hospitals after being treated. Due to several ceilings and sections collapsing within the building, investigators requested canines from the Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Fire Department Urban Search and Rescue Team, which were readily available after a previous building collapse in Hancock.
