Some thing like this happens a lot in the U.S.A.. People think they can get away with it. It was a nice looking house, such a shame!!

When I was a volunteer fireman we had couple times when the homeowner did this because he didn't want his wife to get the house or one time we had a kid go through the hole house and pour gas all though the house and he light it on fire because his parents were going through a divorce

This was my grandparent's home in the 70's. I spent a lot of time in that house as a kid.

I don’t think he was initially arrested for the arson. I think he pissed the cop off cuz the cop was directing the car to turn and he cut the car off and then he was trying to leave when the cop grabbed him. I think the cop detained him and in the questioning he admitted the the fire. Cuz the fireman won’t know if it was arson until the fire is out and they can investigate. They don’t do that why the fire is going.

Unless someone witnessed him setting his house ablaze in which case the officer would of had cause to arrest for suspicion of arson.

“An Uxbridge man pleaded guilty to arson on Tuesday and was sentenced to a minimum of one and a half years in state prison after setting fire to his own house last summer. Christian Carven, 43, formerly of 4 Albee Road, pleaded guilty to arson of a dwelling after three-alarm fire on July 3, 2013 destroyed his home. Worcester Superior Court Judge James Lemire sentenced Carven to one and a half to two years in state prison on the arson charge. Carven also pleaded guilty to malicious destruction of property over $200 and was sentenced to five years probation after his release from prison. As conditions of his probation, Carven must stay away from the neighborhood, with a one-mile exclusion zone from the intersection of Albee and Millville roads, and the witnesses. He will also be monitored by GPS device and undergo mental health and substance abuse evaluations and treatment. He will also undergo random drug testing for illegal drugs and alcohol. Fire investigators, with the help of a state police canine, found evidence of a flammable liquid in the home where Carven lived with his wife and two children, who were not home at the time of the fire. Carven was charged two days after the fire and held on $100,000 bail after a prosecutor noted he was a suspect in several other suspicious fires in the neighborhood from 2005 and two in 2009. He was not charged in any of the other fires, according to the Worcester District Attorney’s office. In the case of the arson at his home, prosecutors presented evidence at the time that Carven had been seen leaving his home on a bicycle shortly before the fire. Before he left, he and his wife had an argument after she discovered evidence he had been drinking and then left with the two kids and said she planned to file for divorce, the prosecutor said.” It was rebuilt in 2014.

If he set the fire (I haven't done any research on this - yet) the swine put a heck of a lot of people in danger: all first responders, every single driver that had to give way to emergency vehicles, and all of his neighbors. If one pedestrian or driver between the first responders' points or origin, all the way to the scene, had be injured - or killed - a whole additional set of people would have been thrown into anguish. Really don't care why he set the fire but I'm furious that he placed people in positions to be hurt or killed. What a selfish prick!

The old catch 22 in small towns. People don't want their taxes to go up, but they get pissed when their house burns down from lack of water. What a beautiful house. The jerk who did this should sit in jail for a long time.

It's illegal, called arson you go to prison for this

The home was fully involved when the first engine arrived. If you think they are going to race around especially when no other homes are at risk of catching on fire you are not involved with any fire services. Showing up and everyone going gangbusters when not necessary only causes accidents and possibly injury.

I seriously doubt that's the homeowner being arrested for arson. There's no way that the police would have conclusive evidence that quickly. The fire hasn't even been extinguished. Investigations of this type typically take weeks to months. The bike rider probably got arrested for crossing a fire line or possibly had an outstanding warrant.

Yes he can be arrested and taken away for questioning and NO the investigation does NOT need to be concluded yet. Say a neighbour observed him starting the fire than leaving on his bike. Than the neighbour told a firefighter on scene who told his captain who called for the investigator to come because now it’s a suspicious fire. In the mean time the cops have been notified and low and behold the owner returns on his bike trying to look all innocent with that “Oh shit my house is on fire” attitude only neighbour points him out to the cops who arrest his ass on suspicion of arson so his clothes, hands etc can be examined for trace evidence.

Steven Phillips the definition of arson is: “the criminal act of deliberately setting fire to property.” It has zero to do with insurance claims.

This is not what is called firefighting by professional FD standards. It's people in the neighborhood watching an excessively large home being gutted by fire while responding Volunteer Fire Fighters [try] to look like they know what they are there for and what they are doing, all to no avail !!!

@puck slapper The vast majority of American fire departments have adapted Heroic tactics instead of focusing on Stopping The Threat which is their job. They like to turn YOUR BURNING HOME into an adventure and photo op. It's is much more exciting running into a burning building than one that you have extinguished. If they Do Their Job and eliminate the threat Quickly and Safely, the Job turns into stinky, wet, hot and cold WORK! Don't doubt that for one second.
