5-8-14 fdl apartment fire arrest

A Fond du Lac man has been arrested in connection with a fire that damaged a Fond du lac apartment complex.  Assistant police chief Steve Klein says the 27 year old man faces charges of arson, burglary

and criminal damage to property.  Klein says the suspect is accused of setting fire to the Home Town Harbor

apartment complex on North Seymour Street last Friday morning.  Klein says investigators determined that an earlier argument between the suspect and an apartment tennat precipitated and led up to the fire.  The fire caused substantial damage to the apartment complex and displaced residents in four separate apartment units.  Fire Chief  Pete O’Leary says its fortunate that nobody was hurt.  O’Leary  says ironically the arrest comes during national arson awareness week.
