Ithaca Arson Investigation 2 Years Later

ITHACA (WENY) -- It's been two years since someone set fire to the home of an Ithaca Police Sergeant, and still no arrests.
     Sergeant Bryan Bangs was home alone when his house was set on fire on July 10th, 2010. State police say investigators have checked into several hundred leads over the past two years, and the case remains open.
      The fire happened shortly after an investigation which found Sergeant Bangs was justified when he shot and killed suspected drug dealer Shawn Greenwood in February 2010.
     State police are asking anyone with information about the fire to call 607-347-4463. Calls are confidential.
