Insurance and Safety Fire Commissioner John F. King announced the arrest of Cassius Aijalon Livingston, 28, of Milan, in connection with an ongoing arson investigation in Telfair County. The arrest follows an investigation into a fire at the Thunderbird Oil Company on February 3, 2025 around 9:00 p.m.
Upon examination, investigators noted that the damage was concentrated near the front window of the structure. The cause of fire was later classified as incendiary after an area of origin was determined and surveillance footage was obtained by investigators. The fire caused significant destruction to the business.
“On Monday, April 14, 2025, in a joint effort between the State Fire Marshal’s office and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), Livingston was arrested and charged with first-degree Arson,” said Commissioner King. “The investigation remains ongoing, and additional arrests are expected at this time.”
Anyone with information is advised to call the 24/7 Georgia Arson Control Hotline at 1-800-282-5804. A reward of up to $10,000 is available for information that leads to the arrest and prosecution of those responsible for arson. Callers may remain anonymous.
