Nathan Grant | Tinley Park officials
TINLEY PARK, Ill. - A suburban man was charged with arson after starting a fire inside a Menards last month in Tinley Park.
Nathan Grant, 32, allegedly set fire to several air conditioning unit filters just after 4 p.m. on April 18 inside the store located at 6851 W. 159th St., officials said.
Investigation revealed Grant started a similar fire in Homer Glen roughly two hours earlier.
License plate readers helped police identify Grant as the suspect in both incidents. He was taken into custody a day later by Wheaton police and confessed to starting both fires, police said.
Grant, of Wheaton, was charged with two counts of aggravated arson.
