NEW TAZEWELL, Tenn. (WATE) — A fire in a bathroom at the New Tazewell Walmart store last week has resulted in the arrest of one suspect, according to the Tazewell/New Tazewell Fire Department.

According to fire officials, firefighters were dispatched on Wednesday, Feb. 15 around 7:15 p.m. to the Walmart store located in the 400 block of S. Broad Street. Dispatch advised them that there was a waterflow alarm and smoke reported at the rear of the store and that a fire was in a bathroom.

“Upon arrival, the chief officer assumed command of the incident with nothing visible from the exterior,” the Tazewell/New Tazewell Fire Department post stated. “Firefighters entered the building from the front and found smoke in the rear near the restroom area with an active sprinkler head in the bathroom.
