SOMERS, Conn. (WTNH) -- Three people have been arrested in connection with a mill fire that broke out in Somers early this summer.

The fire occurred shortly after 2 a.m. on June 2nd, at 40 Maple St., formally known as the Somersville Mill.

After a length investigation, State Police developed three suspects who were trespassing in the mall 15 minutes before the fire was called in to 911.

Police said the suspects were cooperative and provided information regarding the mill fire.

As a result, police applied for arrest warrants for the three suspects: 20-year-old Wesley Hall, of 14 Longfellow Rd., Enfield; 21-year-old Christopher Jackson, of 42 Armstrong Rd., in Enfield; and 23-year-old Erin Houle, of 48 Enfield St., Indian Orchard, MA.

All three were charged with first-degree reckless endangerment, third-degree criminal mischief, and third-degree criminal trespass.

All three turned themselves into police on September 17th, and all are scheduled to appear in court on October 1st.
