MONROEVILLE, Pa. -- Police have made an arrest in the case of a local school superintendent injured in an apartment fire last month.

Bethel Park Superintendent Ronald Grimm, 60, was seriously injured in an early-morning fire on Sept. 12 in Monroeville.

Police and firefighters rescued 10 other people from the Monroe Village Apartments on Monroeville Boulevard shortly after the blaze was reported at 1:55 a.m.

Police arrested Baldwin-Whitehall School Board member Beverly Coon, of Whitehall, Tuesday morning on charges of attempted homicide and arson.

Police say Coon fed Grimm ladylocks laced with a tranquiller, Temazepam, and then set his bed on fire.

According to police, Coon said she had been seeing Grimm romantically for about two years. She said she found out about the fire by watching the local news and went to the scene to see what had happened, police said.

When Grimm was interviewed at the hospital, he told them that he had been involved with Coon but that a week and a half earlier, he told her he did not want to see her anymore, said police.

Police said Grimm also told them that Coon would often call him, leave notes at his apartment, and that he was being stalked.

On the night of the fire, Grimm said he had eaten two of the ladylocks and began to feel tired, much like how he felt when he was given pain medication at the hospital, said police.

Coon faces a list of charges, including stalking, arson and recklessly endangering another person.
