   MERIDIAN, Idaho (CBS2) — Sarah Elizabeth George, a 43-year-old Boise   
   woman, was arrested in connection with last week’s theft of an ambulance   
   and an alleged attempt to set fire to a Meridian building, authorities   
   announced Monday night.   
      
   George was taken into custody after Meridian Police, along with the FBI   
   and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, served an   
   arrest warrant and executed a search warrant at her Boise residence   
      
   Attempted Destruction of Federal Property by Fire   
   Malicious Destruction of Property Used in or Affecting Interstate   
   both   
      
   The case stems from late Wednesday, Feb. 18, when Canyon County   
   paramedics had an ambulance stolen from St. Luke’s Meridian.   
      
   According to investigators, the suspect drove the ambulance into the   
   Portico North Building in Meridian. Authorities say gasoline had been   
   staged in cans and was poured inside the ambulance and on the ground   
   outside the vehicle in what investigators believe was an attempt to   
   ignite the building.   
      
   Officials have not released details about a possible motive.   
      
   Law enforcement officials credited extensive investigative work for the   
   arrest. Over the past five days, detectives and federal agents canvassed   
   neighborhoods door-to-door, searching for surveillance footage,   
   witnesses and other evidence. The search area stretched from Interstate   
   84 to Fairview Avenue and from Locust Grove Road to Cloverdale Road.   
      
   Authorities said that a combination of traditional investigative methods   
   and technological analysis led to the identification of George as the   
   suspect. Under federal law, attempted destruction of federal property by   
   fire carries a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in prison and up   
   to 20 years, along with potential fines. The statutes cited apply to   
   attempts to damage or destroy property owned by or receiving assistance   
   from the federal government, as well as property used in interstate   
   commerce.   
      
   Authorities emphasized that the case remains active.
