Bellevue Fire Department said Monday that two teens are suspected of setting a fire at Paradise Lakes in December that consumed two homes abandoned after area floods pushed out residents of the mobile home park earlier in the year.
A Nebraska fire marshal investigation has found two teenagers responsible for intentionally starting a fire at Paradise Lakes in early December, destroying two homes, Bellevue Fire told 6 News on Monday afternoon.
City officials told 6 News previously that they believed vandals likely set the fires in the two homes.
It's not a surprise to Cathy Yost, who lives nearby.
"There's young'n's going down there, because you know they're teenagers ... starting fires." Yost thinks the City of Bellevue is taking too long to get the contaminated homes torn down.
