"A security guard who was hired to protect the new middle school has been arrested for setting fires there.And here I am suspecting neighborhood kids. Sorry, kids, I guess you're not as bad as all that.
Timothy Myers, 22, of Nickel Avenue in Sayreville, was arrested and charged with three counts of arson and criminal mischief on Dec. 8 after the New Jersey State Police and the Monmouth County Arson Task Force concluded an investigation into three fires that were recently set in the school being constructed off Waters Lane in Millstone Township.
Myers was previously charged with arson and criminal mischief in July 2005 for setting fire to two dumpsters at the Oasis Chevrolet dealership on Route 9 in Old Bridge.
Myers, who was 20 at the time and was working as a security guard at the dealership, was arrested on July 30 after Old Bridge Fire Marshal Brett Schulmeister discovered that a flammable liquid had been used to start the blaze."
A friend of mine who jogs past the construction site on weekend afternoons has mentioned seeing the security guard asleep. I guess he sleeps when he's not setting fires.
