2 Men Arrested in Delaware Church Arsons: Police

Police in Delaware say that a bottle of liquor was a crucial clue that helped them find two men accused of setting three churches on fire. NBC10’s Tim Furlong spoke to Pastor Wilbert Moorer of Healing Hands Christian Church.

Two men were arrested in connection to arsons at three Felton, Delaware churches.

Alex Harrington Jr., 26, was arrested in the High Point Mobile Home Park Monday afternoon. Joseph Skochelak, 25, was also arrested Monday afternoon in a Dover, Delaware apartment complex.

Both men are charged with arson, burglary and conspiracy and are awaiting arraignment.

Harrington Jr. and Skochelak are accused of deliberately setting fires that damaged the Healing Hands Christian Church, Manship Chapel, and the Laws Mennonite Church back on Dec. 2.
