‘Everything is annihilated:’ Business owner asking public to come forward with information about arson

Police are on the hunt to find two men accused of setting a Jacksonville business on fire, and the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office is asking for help to find the suspects.

It happened a little over a week ago off Main Street in the North Shore area.

The business owner said he lost almost everything.

“I mean it destroyed everything inside and I don’t understand why someone would do such a hateful crime like that,” the business owner said.

The J & H Auto Pro Detailing business owner didn’t want to share his name to protect his identity from the suspects.

While the building appears to be mostly intact, the contents of what was inside were destroyed.

The business owner said the suspects lit up his business and tried setting his house on fire too.

“I run a respectful business, and I’ve been here 12, almost 13 years. And I try to do good on everybody but someone to bring that to my front door – it’s personal,” the owner said.
