NEW MILFORD, Conn. (WTIC Radio) - New Milford Police arrest a suspect in connection with a March 2023 arson fire.

Police say Jeremy Rawson, 53, of Danbury, was arrested Thursday.

It was around 8:14 p.m. on March 31, 2023, when emergency responders went to 688 Kent Road in the Gaylordsville section of New Milford, where a fire was burning at the home.

It took a response from the Gaylordsville, Sherman, Kent, Water Witch Host, and Northville Fire Departments to get the fire under control.

New Milford fire officials, with help from State Police, investigated the cause and determined it was "incendiary in nature."

Rawson is being charged with first-degree arson and first-degree criminal mischief. His bond is $500,000.
