UPDATE: Three arrested following Lewes barn fire

Three teenagers have been arrested and charged with felonies, in connection to a barn fire in Lewes.

The Delaware State Fire Marshal’s Office says they have arrested three juveniles aged 15 to 16-years-old from Lewes, Rehoboth, and Ocean Pines, after they were linked to a February 6th barn fire on Gills Neck Road. The flames that ripped through the 50’x100′ barn, left it severely damaged, with an estimated loss of $150,000.

The three teens have been charged with one count each of felony arson 3rd degree, felony conspiracy 2nd degree, misdemeanor criminal mischief, and misdemeanor criminal trespass 2nd degree.

All three suspects were released to relatives on unsecured bonds, pending later arraignments in Family Court.
