74-year old Donald Dickey was arrested Wednesday and is now being held in the Izard County Jail on an Arson Charge.

Firefighters were called to a residence in Calico Rock Sunday for a fire. The house was destroyed and the occupant, Mary Dickey could not be found.

Two days later Arkansas State Police and other enforcement agencies processed the scene for evidence and discovered what appeared to be human remains.

The remains have been submitted to the Medical Examiner’s Office of the Arkansas State Crime Laboratory for autopsy and identification purposes.

Dickey is being held on a $500,000 bond.
