Police in Fond du Lac say they made a high-risk arrest this morning in an arson investigation.
Capt. Jason Laridaen says the 33-year-old man has a long criminal history, and they thought he could be armed. They used the SWAT team to help, in the 100 block of Ellis Street, around 6:30 a.m. They asked neighbors to stay inside, as a precaution.
The man is accused of setting a car on fire in the area of E. Merrill Avenue and Marquette Street on Sunday. No one was hurt.
Police say the suspect was also wanted in a substantial battery case.
