Sheriff says fires in Drake area being investigated

(Don Haney, KFGO, Fargo) UNDATED (AP) The McHenry County sheriff says the North Dakota fire marshal will be brought in to investigate suspicious fires in the Drake area to determine if they were the work of murder suspect Jeremy Brooks.

Authorities say Brooks was captured this morning in a field just north of Drake after an intensive two day manhunt.

The fires were in the same area.

A barn burned early yesterday. Several granaries and some cars burned early this morning.

Authorities believe the fires may have been set as a diversion to draw off searchers.

Sheriff Marv Sola says they're being investigated.

Noel Hanenman (HAN'-eh-man) lives a mile away from where Brooks was captured. He says he locked his doors, braced them with chairs, and he and his wife each went to bed with a shotgun.

Brooks is charged with murder in Minnesota and attempted murder in Louisiana.

So it's safe to go to ND again?

Bet that was a long 2 nights for Mr Brooks also. You take a fellar from Louisiana and stick him up north where the temps were dipping into the low 50's and a zillion skeeters. No wonder when they found him he didn't put up no fight. :lol: :lol:

Wait till he reads the papers and finds out everyone had taken shotguns to bed with them. He's just lucky to be alive! Of course if he happened to contract the west nile virus it might just solve that little problem. :twisted:
