Fire at 307 Swinging Spear in Roswell leads to arson arrest
Investigators seek witnesses in a Roswell fire and explosion at 307 Swinging Spear on May 29. Dub Wilson, 36, is charged with arson and related crimes. Fire Marshal Mike Puckett says another person may know more and possibly drove Wilson to and from the scene. Wilson reportedly hitchhiked to Albuquerque in a pickup bed wrapped in a blanket, and investigators want the ride provider. Wilson has burns on the face, neck, and arms and appeared with long facial hair that night.
