MIDVALE, Utah (AP) — A man is suspected of setting his own house ablaze in November.
The Deseret News reports (http://bit.ly/1NXZHLG) Christopher Wendall Jensen was arrested Friday. Charges filed Dec. 4 against Jensen include aggravated arson.
Police say three officers and a Taser were needed to arrest Jensen, who was combative when authorities arrived.
