“This was ruled as an arson investigation,” Jacobs said. “These animals died a senseless and cruel death as they had no way of escaping the harsh fire that consumed their kennels. During this arson investigation, no evidence has been developed to bring the person or persons responsible for the death of the 13 dogs to justice.”
