Court records show Kenneth H. Smith Jr., 30, is being held and should be arraigned in Calhoun County District Court on Thursday afternoon.
Prosecutor David Gilbert said Wednesday charges have been authorized of fleeing and eluding police and fourth-degree arson. More charges are expected; they could include malicious destruction of a fire engine, resisting arrest, breaking and entering and attempting to escape police custody.
