According to an article on WOOD TV8 in Grand Rapids, a Monroe County Sheriff's Detective
on a stakeout to catch an arsonist arrested the suspect as he tried to
steal gas from the officer's cruiser.
Deputies were placed
around homes currently under construction after police had gotten two
arson complaints within the past week.Several officers,
including Detective Thomas Redmond, watched the 17-year-old walk away
from his Lambertville home early Sunday carrying a bucket before he
approached Redmond's unmarked vehicle.
Deputies say the teen unscrewed the gas cap and started siphoning the fuel before Redmond got out of the car and chased him.Authorities say the teen later admitted to the two arsons as well as three other arsons in 2006.
