A deliberately set fire tore through an apartment above the Silver Dollar Saloon in Petersburg, Indiana on September 11, 1994, killing 23-year-old Angela Houston and five-year-old Cara Abell. Investigators determined the blaze was arson; the apartment was completely consumed and the scene was difficult to process because of the damage. Despite the official ruling that the fire was intentional, leads were scarce and no suspects were publicly named.

Decades later the case remains unsolved and open, with the Indiana State Police asking the public for any information that could produce a break. The deaths left the community with a lasting sense of loss and unanswered questions.

Does anyone have information about Angela, Cara, or that 1994 fire that could help investigators?
