Overview
- The fire broke out around 10:30 p.m. Monday at a Conyers daycare, destroying much of the building less than a week before its planned grand opening.
- Video shows someone entering after breaking a window, pouring what appears to be gasoline through the hallway, and igniting the blaze.
- The Rockdale County Fire Marshal’s Office has the footage, highlighted a distinctive jacket with crosses, and is asking anyone with information to contact the Sheriff’s Office.
- No arrests have been announced, and the owner says the opening is postponed indefinitely after significant renovation losses this year.
- The owner reports a February break-in that flooded the building, says she believes the site is being targeted, notes community support, and says she will offer a reward for leads.
