Two Baton Rouge men are in custody and accused of setting fire to a grocery store in Jeanerette.
Police arrested Christopher Wyatt and Joe Veal on Wednesday for aggravated arson.
Jeanerette police responded on May 30 to a report of suspicious activity at AM Grocery on Church Street.
A live camera feed showed somebody setting fire to the business.
After officers arrived, the suspects led police on a chase that ended with spike strips on Highway 182 near Darnell Road.
The men ran away, but police caught them.
