Novi man charged for setting historic building on fire in Tennessee
Novi man sets Tennessee building on fire, charged with arson
“Firefighters fought the blaze for more than twelve hours and one firefighter was injured,” a news release stated. “At this time, officers do not think he has any connection to the Morristown area.”
FOX 2 (WJBK) – A Novi man set fire to a historic building in a small Tennessee town on Tuesday.
Jeffrey Scott Cicirelli, 33, is in custody and has been charged with arson, reckless endangerment, burglary, and vandalism, according to a news release from the city.
The beloved Parks-Belk Building went up in flames around 9 p.m. in downtown Morristown, TN. It was constructed in the early 1900s.
“It’s pretty disappointing, obviously,” said the city’s mayor, Gary Chesney. “It was a bad one, and it took a lot of fire equipment to put it out. They were able to contain it to the building.”
“Firefighters fought the blaze for more than twelve hours and one firefighter was injured,” the city release stated. “At this time, officers do not think he has any connection to the Morristown area.”
According to investigators, Cicirelli claimed he was in the area due to his vehicle breaking down while traveling; he had been staying at a motel for several days.
Chesney said Cicirelli sought to have his car repaired at a local auto shop, but a dispute broke out over the bill.
“Kind of told anybody who would listen that because he was treated this way, he planned to burn the town down,” Chesney added. “What attracted the law enforcement’s attention to him was he was there among the people watching the fire. And he was kind of in and out with the first responders, asking questions about the fire and kind of, I guess, admiring his work.”
The building was previously used as a department store, but has been vacant for years, according to the mayor. A New York City investor, with relatives in the area, bought the building with plans to turn it into condos. Those plans are still in place.
The suspect is in custody and has been ordered to undergo a psych evaluation.

WASHINGTON COUNTY, Tenn. (WCYB) — The Washington County, Tennessee Isaiah 117 House hosted a fundraiser event Tuesday to help support area children who are entering the foster care system.
The event took at Boones Creek Christian Church where organizers hope to raise around $20,000 to go towards funds for the house and raise awareness for the organization.
The organization which began in the Tri-Cities now has more than 60 houses in 13 states.
The group helps care for children who are entering foster care while they are waiting on their foster placement.
“We feel like we have an obligation to continue to do this for the generations to come, for the children who haven’t been born yet,” Washington County Isaiah 1:17 House Support Coordinator Katie Wilt said. “We know they are going to need us. We wish they didn’t but we know that they are, so part of this luncheon is to fundraise to make sure that we are able to sustain the care and the hope for the children of the future.”

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WZTV) — Gov. Bill Lee and First Lady Maria Lee have wrapped up a yearlong, statewide America 250 tour that spotlighted Tennessee’s role in the nation’s history.
The tour, themed “Tennessee: The Original Frontier”, highlighted people, places and events tied to Tennessee’s contributions to America. Over the past year, Lee visited all 95 counties as part of the effort to commemorate the milestone with Tennesseans across the state.
Over the past year, Maria and I have traveled from Mountain City to Memphis, and we’ve been reminded that our state’s greatest strength is its people,” Lee said. “As America prepares to celebrate 250 years of independence, Tennesseans can take pride in the Volunteer Spirit carried forward in the individuals, communities, and stories that have helped shape our nation from the very beginning.
The tour concluded in Van Buren County at the same venue where Lee held his first gubernatorial campaign event in 2017, returning to the place where his statewide journey began.
