Suspect arrested in investigation of grain bin explosion

grain bin explodedThe Livingston County Sheriff announced progress in the investigation of a grain bin that was destroyed by an explosion in the southern part of the county December 26th.

A Hale, Missouri man was arrested by authorities in Carroll County Tuesday. So far Randall Daniels, 52, has not been charged with the explosion, but faces other charges since his arrest. In Carroll County he’s accused of a firearms violation, while in Livingston County he’s charged with two counts of Child Endangerment.

Mr. Daniels has been released from jail on bond and is due back in Carroll County court next month.

At the time of the original incident, Livingston County Sheriff Steve Cox said the blast may have been related to other similar ones in other counties. It’s not clear if the suspect will be linked to those crimes.
