A digital composite image was released Tuesday as part of an investigation into marine flares ignited at a Lake Wales shopping mall.

  • Police release 'person of interest' image
  • Incident happened Sunday at Eagle Ridge Mall
  • Anyone with information asked to call Lake Wales Police

The rigged devices were set off Sunday, sparking a fire in a corridor at Eagle Ridge Mall.

Damage was minimal, and there were no injuries, but part of a drop ceiling was blown to the floor.

On Monday, police released surveillance video and said there are two people they’d like to interview.

Deputy Chief Troy Schulze said the mall “has been combed from one side to the next, from store to store, inside and out.”

Police say the key to cracking the case could be on someone’s cell phone. If caught, the person or people responsible could face arson charges.

If you have any information about Sunday’s incident, contact the Lake Wales Police Department.
