CHARMCO -

State Police in Greenbrier County arrested four people on arson and other charges.

Tommy Keeney, Dustin Ellison, Ragan Adkins and Danny Fields were all arrested this morning.

The arrests came after continued investigation, thanks to tips from the public.

The charges are in connection to the fire at the Taco Bell in Charmco in early April.

All four suspects are charged with conspiracy to commit a felony, grand larceny and second degree arson.

Keeney, Ellison and Fields are also charged with breaking and entering.

Ninety percent of the business suffered heat and smoke damage and will take some time to reconstruct.

The fire did $700,000 in damage.
