The Evansville Police Department arrested the alleged  scooter scoundrel yesterday after watching video provided by a witness.

Police went to the apartment of 70 year old Marion McBride to speak with him.

He confirmed to police that he was on Franklin Street last Friday night and Tuesday morning.

McBride told officers that he is from Nashville and the scooters were everywhere, including handicap parking spaces and driveways and it upsets him.

The alleged arsonist left a cardboard sign near the scooters.

It read…”15 stolen last year, 1 trew [sic] them in Pigeon Creek, Set fire to 19 more, About 150 damaged in many ways, U will never profit, I will not stop-Get off Franklin, I have not bothered any other locations, but I will if you don’t leave, get off Franklin, CALL POLICE”.

He is currently in the Vanderburgh County Jail charged with arson.
