Kentucky State Police say they are investigating three house fires that occurred after the homes were burglarized.
Police said in a statement that they think the cases are related and believe the blazes are the result of arson.
The statement says the first fire was reported April 29 at a home near Lancaster in Garrard County. As police were finishing the investigation there, they were called to another house blaze near Wilmore in Jessamine County. A third house fire was reported May 2 near Nicholasville. Police say all the homes had been burglarized before catching fire.
Police urge anyone who saw anything suspicious that could be related to the blazes to call 859-623-2404 or 800-27ARSON. There is a $1,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest and conviction.
