A 34-year-old woman has been charged in connection to a Fort Worth house fire in September that resulted in two firefighters hurt including one severely.
Fort Worth Arson Unit Captain Wayne May says they obtained an arrest warrant for Shawndreika Thomas this week.
"The person is what we would consider homeless, she was staying at the women's shelter," Captain May said. "There is not any criminal history of arson."
Firefighter Caleb Halvorson was severely injured in the fire and has had to undergo several surgeries.
Thomas is charged with Bodily Injury to Firefighters and Arson of Habitation.
The Fire Department is also extending gratitude to people around the world who have reached out in support of Firefighter Halvorson.
