Jillian Robinson, 18, was detained after she was seen suspiciously lurking in the area where the churches had been set ablaze in Orem, Utah

A Utah teen was arrested on Friday after she allegedly set fire to two Mormon churches and scrawled 'Satan Lives' on the walls, according to local authorities.

Jillian Nicole Robinson, 18, was detained after she was seen suspiciously lurking in the area where the churches - belonging to the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - had been set ablaze.

When officers from the Orem Police Department arrived at the scene, they reported seeing smoke coming from the inside and discovered that a door was broken.

'They went inside and saw several fires had been set throughout the Church,' the department said in a Facebook post calling the antics their 'daily shenanigans.'

The police added: 'They were able to put the fires out with a fire extinguisher that one of the officers had in his patrol car.

'Once inside, you didn't have to be a detective or arson investigator to tell that these fires had been intentionally set by someone.'

Police began monitoring other churches in the area and discovered a 'suspicious female lurking about.'

Officers spoke with the woman and discovered that she had a bottle in her backpack that 'smelled like gas', a lighter, a power drill, and a sharpie among other items.

When authorities asked Robinson, she told them that 'she didn't start the fire'.

The police determined that she was in the process of lighting another church on fire and estimated that the total damage came to about $600,000.

Robinson was charged with arson, burglary, criminal mischief and possession of burglary tools. She is being held at the Utah County Jail with a bond of $20,000.

According to court documents, obtained by Fox 13, Robinson denied any involvement but eventually wrote a voluntary witness statement.

She said: 'I acted alone in the fire that was started at the church on 1200 North. I was angry and all wanted to do was set a small fire and it got out of control.

I fled the scene and didn't look back. I felt like playing with fire because of my crazy life at home, this was not a hate crime.'

'Keep your rage in a cage, if it's not yours don't touch it, eat it don't tweet it, hugs not drugs and the more you weigh the harder you are to kidnap, the department added, along with a meme from the Maury Povich show.
