More details have been released on the Arson and Assault in Branson last week that resulted in the arrest of 30-year-old Nathan Gardner of Forsyth.

According to reports published in the Branson Tri-Lakes News, Gardner set fire to a pair of rooms at the Peach Tree Inn in Branson on March 17 having also cut the cable to one of the security cameras. Even though he wore a face covering, other video evidence and an investigation at the scene led to Gardner being the suspect in the fire. 

Investigators already had Gardner in custody on an unrelated assault charge when he was found sleeping in a vehicle at Downtown Texaco on Veterans Blvd. When an employee tried to wake him, Gardner allegedly attack and injured the employee then fled before being arrested by Branson Police a short time later. 

Gardner remains in the Taney County Jail in Forsyth. 

More details on the story can be found on the Branson Tri-Lakes News Website.
