Grand jury declines to indict man arrested in connection with Texas apartment fire that killed 5

San Marcos Texas Fire - (Express-News 2018)

A grand jury has declined to indict a man who was arrested in connection with a Texas apartment fire that killed five people in 2018, prosecutors said Thursday.

The grand jury this week decided against indicting 31-year-old Jacobe Ferguson in the arson causing death case, the Hays County District Attorney's Office said in a news release. He'd been accused of starting the July 20, 2018, fire in San Marcos, a city of about 70,000 southwest of Austin that's home to Texas State University.
