Arson case sent to Supreme Court

NASSAU- A cook accused of setting a fire that destroyed one home and damaged three others will be arraigned in the Supreme Court on December 18.

Prosecutors on Friday fast-tracked the arson case of Angelique Williams to the Supreme Court with the presentation of a voluntary bill of indictment.

Williams is accused of deliberately starting a fire that destroyed Bonnie Solomon’s wooden home on Laird Street on September 2.

The fire spread and damaged the neighboring homes of Jillian Newbold, Marcus Newbold, and Janet Serrette. In total, the fire caused $176,418 in damage.

Williams is free on bail.
