TikTok Couple Charged With Arson After Burning Abandoned Home

Two TikTok personalities, Dakota Harper, 21, and Felicity Eatmon, 22, were arrested on Tuesday, September 29, facing charges of first-degree arson and conspiracy to commit arson. The arrests followed an investigation into a fire that destroyed an abandoned home in Charleston, West Virginia, on the night of Sunday, September 27. This incident occurred two days before their apprehension.

Authorities obtained surveillance footage allegedly depicting Eatmon passing a lit piece of paper to Harper, who then entered the vacant structure. Both individuals were seen leaving the property shortly after. The fire caused an estimated $10,000 in damages to the nearby Canaan United Methodist Church. Harper and Eatmon, known for their couple's content on TikTok with a following of approximately 26.7K, were booked into South Central Regional Jail with a $10,000 bond each.
