Three juveniles have been charged with arson in connection with a fire at Windsor’s Main Park on March 5.
All three juveniles are facing one count of arson, a Class 3 felony. Two of the juveniles are also charged with theft under $300, a petty offense, according to a town of Windsor news release April 25.
The identity of the individuals will not be released publicly in accordance with juvenile protection laws, the news release said.
Windsor Police Department Criminal Investigations Division used crime scene analysis, numerous interviews with neighbors in the area and leads from personal surveillance footage through its Secure Streets program to identify the suspects.
The town’s Secure Streets program allows property owners with private security cameras that record public areas — streets, sidewalks or parking lots — to voluntarily register their cameras with the Windsor Police Department.
All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in court. Arrests and charges are merely accusations by law enforcement until, and unless, a suspect is convicted of a crime.
