MOORESBURG, Tenn. (WJHL) — A Hawkins County man was arrested after an arson investigation by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI).
According to the TBI, Daniel Dewayne Manning, 70, of Mooresburg, was booked into the Hawkins County Jail on Tuesday.
At the request of District Attorney General Dan Armstrong, TBI agents initiated an investigation into the incident of a vehicle fire that occurred in October 2023 on the 700 block of Big Hill Road in Mooresburg.
The investigation determined that Manning had intentionally set the fire, according to the TBI.
According to reports, a Hawkins County grand jury returned indictments last week charging Manning with arson, reckless endangerment, vandalism, insurance fraud, and filing false reports.
