A Hardin County woman has been accused of setting a fire on her neighbor’s mobile home porch and punching a police officer.
The Radcliff Police Department arrested 41-year-old Leann N. Bailey, of Radcliff, early Sunday morning in Yarwood Mobile Home Park after she placed a gas can on her neighbor’s porch and lit it on fire, The News-Enterprise reports.
There were five people inside the residence when Bailey set it on fire. The fire was extinguished and no injuries were reported.
When Radcliff officers were dispatched to the scene, they had to force their way into Bailey’s home. Once inside, the suspect punched an officer in the face with a closed fist, the Elizabethtown newspaper reports.
Bailey was arrested and charged with first-degree arson, five counts of felony wanton endangerment, third-degree assault of a police officer, resisting arrest, and third-degree criminal trespassing. She was lodged in the Hardin County Detention Center on a $250,000 cash bond.
