PUBLIC SAFETY Man arrested for allegedly trying to torch car in Central Point Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted Nov. 8, 2015 at 6:00 PM Posted Nov. 8, 2015 at 6:00 PM » Social News CENTRAL POINT — A 32-year-old man allegedly poured gas on a parked car in Central Point and lit the liquid ablaze Sunday afternoon. The man, who police have not yet identified, was arrested a short distance away from the vehicle, close to the intersection of Tenth and Manzanita streets across from Jewett Elementary School. The incident was reported at about 4:40 p.m., with calls to 911 for visible flames burning on the car, a red Chevy Malibu. Jackson County Fire District No. 3 responded to the scene, but police were able to extinguish the fire before firefighters arrived, officers at the scene said. Officers at the scene said reports of an assault at the scene were unfounded. No one was injured. Police would not comment on motives for the suspected incident. The man is likely facing arson charges, they added. — Ryan Pfeil MailTribune.com Writer Posted Nov. 8, 2015 at 6:00 PM » Comment or view comments Reader Reaction » STAY INFORMED Email NewsLetter Sign Up Today Sign up for our newsletter and have the top headlines from your community delivered right to your inbox.
