Teens Sought for Allegedly Setting Severn Fire

Severn, MD — County fire officials have shared images of two teenage boys they want to talk to about a fire set in Severn.

The Anne Arundel County Fire Department Fire and Explosives Investigation Unit is asking the public to help identify two youths who allegedly set furniture on fire behind Dove Court in the Still Meadows community about 2 p.m. Friday, authorities say. Firefighters arrived and found two pieces of wooden furniture burning and extinguished the flames without incident.

A witness told fire investigators that two black teenagers -- both about 16 years old and six feet tall -- set the fire and provided a video of the incident. From that video, investigators captured still photographs that the fire department shared on its blog.
