Ten charges have been laid against a Vancouver-area man arrested after two alleged arsons at the same Richmond home.
RCMP say the first fire damaged a garage door at a home on March 29, but the homeowner was able to put out the flames himself.
Just two days later, the same owner reported he had found what appeared to be a Molotov cocktail device inside his house, but the container had not ignited.
Police say they reviewed video surveillance and arrested a suspect in his mid-40s who remains in custody.
