LAPLACE – After receiving information, detectives of the St. Charles Parish Sheriff’s Office executed a search warrant at a Montz residence Monday evening and arrested individuals involved in the two Montz fires that occurred last Friday.  
During the interview process, Beau Badeaux and two juvenile subjects admitted to being involved in the fires and also admitted to being involved in another Montz fire that occurred back in March. Badeaux and the two juveniles were scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday morning.
Badeaux of 17944 Louisiana Highway 628 in Montz was charged with three counts of aggravated arson, six counts of contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile and a 29th JDC attachment, which is unrelated to the fires. The juvenile suspects were both charged with three counts of aggravated arson.
