By Clarissa Kell-Holland, Land Line staff writer
A former truck driver has been sentenced to eight years in federal prison after admitting he set on fire several tractor-trailers that were parked at truck stops in at least six states.
According to court documents, Steven Oakley Price, 41, of Licking, MO, pleaded guilty on Thursday, Dec. 1, to setting the tractor-trailers on fire, many with the drivers still in them, by inserting “accelerant-soaked materials, clothing, rags or fuel filters in or around the wheel well of the tractor-trailer trucks.”
Price, who drove for Tennant Truck Lines, headquartered in Orion, IL, was arrested on June 23, 2010, shortly after setting a fire at a truck stop at the Dallas Pike Auto Truck Stop in Valley Grove, WV. Court documents state that Price’s company, Tennant, was working with investigators and that he was under surveillance using a GPS tracking device.
Price became the prime suspect in the truck stop fires after “he was observed at a truck stop in Kingdom City, MO,” which was the scene of “four separate fires.” His GPS placed him at the scene.
According to court documents, Price admitted to starting the fires because he was “upset and distraught due to problems with his ex-wife.”

Holy Badoing!!!! There are some real winners out there. Guess I need to keep a real close eye on my truck when I'm parked for the night. Hard to do when I'm sleeping in it.
Glad they got the guy!!!!!

Sounds like he was just working to eliminate the competition.:thumbsup: What would make you go do something like that just because the ex is giving you problems?

There are as many personalities out there as there are drivers. What makes sense to me won't make sense to you, and what makes sense to you and I, won't make sense to Roadhog. What seems to have made sense to this guy doesn't make sense to any of us.

In the past, I've caught a guy trying to put caustic soda in my fuel tank. The caps didn't lock, but after giving then another quarter turn with a huge pair of channel-locks, no one was going to get them off bare-handed. (International had a threaded fuel cap)

He may have tried it on his ex-wife, and has a restraining order out on him now. No restraining order to deal with at a truck stop.... I don't know. Would it be considered a "personal attack" on him if I said that I think he's nuts?????

Cowards like this always lay some lame-o blame on someone else, first.
It's like asking "why did you run?", and you get the garden variety answer..."I was scared man."

You're absolutely right... He should've set himself on fire and spared everyone else the suffering.

There may be a chance that the terrorist on the plane, last year, did not get to show him how to do that.

ONE time on cops, the cop caught the guy and the cop said "why were you running?" and the guy looked at him dead serious and said "because you were chasing me"

He's not a member of this board (hopefully), so you can have at him ;) The rule is meant for forum members to show each other respect.

Well, make sure his truck isn't parked near any others... That might be a tall order, though.
