Search underway for couple who set Northern California Winco on fire

Date:

(FOX40.COM) — Law enforcement is asking for the public’s help to identify a couple accused of setting a Northern California Winco on Fire.

On Saturday, a man and woman walked into the Winco store at 2300 Watt Avenue in Sacramento, according to the Metro Fire. While inside, the two loaded up a cart with groceries. Officials said the woman set fire to items on the shelf in the baking aisle and proceeded to the checkout area.

The fire was contained quickly by an employee with a fire extinguisher, however, the majority of the product in that section will need to be replaced due to the smoke and extinguishing agent, according to Metro Fire.

Officials released still-shot images of the video that show the woman in a blue hoodie and the man in all black with an LA hat and sunglasses. Anyone with information about the suspects or incident can call the Metro Fire arson tip-line at 916-859-4585.
