On Friday, June 23, authorities announced the arrest of 56-year-old Dianna Lynn Wills of Whiting, NJ for second degree aggravated arson and second degree manslaughter for a Manchester, NJ structure fire that took place in early April.
On Friday, April 7 around 9:30 p.m., a structure fire was reported on Kingfisher Way in Manchester Township. The Manchester Fire and Police Departments responded to the location, where flames protruded from the roof of the structure.
The homeowner was able to safely exit the structure and summon assistance. Unfortunately, the homeowner’s five dogs were trapped inside the residence and perished in the fire.
