ST. LOUIS – A federal grand jury indicted 23-year-old Rashaad Cotton for arson and one count of possession of a destructive device on Wednesday. Police arrested the St. Louis resident on April 30, 2021.
According to the indictment, on April 30, 2021, Cotton maliciously tried to damage and destroy a building located in the 1400 block of Beale Street in St. Charles, Missouri using fire and explosive materials.
Cotton knowingly possessed a destructive device (Molotov cocktail) consisting of a glass bottle filled with an ignitable liquid with a wick inserted into the neck of the bottle.
For the arson count, Cotton faces a maximum punishment of at least five years but not more than 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. For the destructive device count, the maximum punishment is 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.
