PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) – The owners of the Super 8 Motel in Creswell were arrested after investigators determined two fires at their motel were intentionally set.
KOIN reports that officials responded to the motel on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 22 shortly before 9:30 p.m. The fire was quickly extinguished.
At the time of the fire, six rooms were rented with at least seven people inside. Two days later, on Saturday at 1:42 a.m., another fire was reported at the motel. Once again, fire officials responded and put out the blaze.
The Oregon State Police arson unit investigated.
On Sunday, the owners – Inder Singh, 29, and his uncle, Satinder Singh, 50 – were arrested on arson charges. It wasn’t immediately clear if they had attorneys.
