AUBURN – Did the attempted arsonist know a mother and her baby were inside the residence?

On July 3 in the 11000 block of Garnet Way, the PCSO responded to a fire. Witnesses saw the suspect “pour fuel on the door of the condominium’s laundry room.”

This room is under the child’s bedroom. The suspect lit the fire and fled. The fire did not do significant damage and the mother and her baby were not injured.

Investigators processed the scene and identified 25-year-old transient Dylan R. Fain as the attempted arsonist.

Deputies arrested Fain a few hours later.  His charges are arson and child endangerment.  His bail is $250,000.
