Man Sentenced For Interstate Arson

Forty-two year old Steven Oakley Price, a truck driver from Licking, Missouri was sentenced to eight years in prison Thursday on eight counts of arson. Price admitted he set arson fires that burned several tractor-trailer trucks in Missouri, Georgia, Indiana, West Virginia, Iowa and Illinois between August 2009 and June 2010. Prosecutors say Price put fuel-soaked objects in or around the wheel wells of tractor-trailer trucks. Police used GPS data provided by Price's employer, Tennant Truck Lines of Orion, Illinois, to track his movements.
