Police seek pickup driver in Belvedere Hotel fire investigation
State police want to find the driver of a pickup seen in the area of the Belvedere Hotel in Oklahoma Borough before it was destroyed by fire July 23.
State police said on Twitter that a Dodge Ram made between 1999 and 2002 was seen in the area shortly before the fire started around 11:30 p.m. that day.
“We are hoping the driver has information to help us,” state police said.

Anyone who can help identify the vehicle is asked to contact state police at 724-832-3288.
Earlier this month, state police said they wanted to talk with two people who were captured on a security camera walking near the hotel.
A state police spokesman could not immediately be reached for comment on the status of the search for those people.
The historic four-story hotel had been vacant and in disrepair for years. It was destroyed in only 10 minutes in a fire that authorities described as suspicious.
Details of a cleanup plan will be released to the public on Thursday, according to Lee Schumaker, code enforcement officer for Oklahoma Borough.
