Two arrested, one wanted on arson charges in the Poconos

BARRETT TOWNSHIP, MONROE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — The Pocono Mountain Regional Police have announced the arrest of two individuals and a third suspect still on the run after a December 2023 arson attempt.

Pocono Mountain Regional Police say they were dispatched to the 100 block of Pine Knob Lane in Canadensis after the resident was woken up by a loud bang. Upon inspecting the property she found a Molotov ********* burning on her front porch, which she kicked off the porch. The press release goes on to say that the resident then found a second Molotov ********* that had shattered in her driveway but did not detonate. Investigators said they found two additional Molotov cocktails that had also failed to detonate, one by the rear of the house and the other on the side of the house. Both failed to fully ignite, according to police.

Police noted that at the time of the incident, the resident was home with four children under the age of 13 and her 20-year-old daughter.

Police say they developed a suspect, Chapel Lliev, 20 years old, of Pocono Summit.

Police say during the events of the attempted arson, they were notified that East Stroudsburg University was investigating a car fire that may be connected to the arson investigation. The vehicle had windows smashed out and a Molotov ********* had set it ablaze.

Police say that video surveillance was obtained that helped investigators identify Isaiah Garcia, 21 years old, from Bushkill, along with Lliev and a third unidentified suspect. Police say video surveillance allegedly showed them filling a gas container up and placing it into the trunk. This vehicle was later found crashed and abandoned that day, according to police. Within the crashed vehicle, investigators say they found a debit card for Traill Labar, 20, of White Haven, as well as a receipt for the gasoline. That vehicle was reported stolen the following day.
