CAHOKIA HEIGHTS, Ill. – Cahokia Heights police were alerted to a burglary happening in the 100 block of Lazarcheff Drive just before 3 p.m. on May 19.

According to officials, three individuals—one woman and two men—were allegedly attempting to enter a vacant home.

The Cahokia Heights police received information about the three suspects’ prior burglaries and arson incidents.

When police arrived at the scene on May 19, they were able to arrest the female suspect, who was later identified as 26-year-old Kenya Sloan. The other two men have not been found, according to police.

Officials also reported that Sloan was a person of interest for previous arson events across Cahokia Heights. 

Police even suspect her of being potentially responsible for a vacant house fire. A neighboring house ended up catching on fire, but a family was inside. First responders, however, were able to put out the flames.

On Wednesday, States Attorney issued a felony warrant for arson, and Sloan was taken to jail for a detention hearing.
