A 24-year-old man is being accused of trying to light a house on fire in Manchester, police said.
Early Wednesday morning, police were called about a man reportedly pouring gasoline on the home of 76 Devon Drive. The gasoline did not light on fire after the suspected attempted to set the house ablaze, police said.
There were four people in the home at the time.
Zachary Reddick, 24, of Windsor, was arrested in connection to the attempted arson, police said. The motive appeared to be in response to a theft of the suspect that happened at the victim's home, police allege.
Reddick is accused of first degree criminal attempt to commit arson, four counts of reckless endangerment and third degree criminal mischief.
He is being held on a $200,000 bond and is expected in court on Mar. 3.
It was not immediately clear if Reddick had a lawyer.
