Woman set two semi trucks on fire outside of motel with bizarre intentions

A woman was arrested after setting two semi trucks on fire in Kansas City recently. 

The incident happened at the Crown Lodge Motel in Kansas City, Missouri. 

According to KMBC News, witnesses called police when they saw Madeline F. Hartnett light nearby grass on fire and change clothes as two semi trucks burned in the motel parking lot. 

Surveillance footage from the motel confirmed that Hartnett had been near the commercial vehicles before they went up in flames. 

During police questioning, Hartness told officers that she set fire to the tractor trailers to “reveal where our children are.”

No injuries were reported. No further information has been released.
