A 48-year-old man set two vacant structures on fire in Little Egg Harbor earlier this month, officials said. Phillip Harrison, of Little Egg Harbor, was charged with two counts of aggravated arson and two counts of burglary following his arrest on Saturday, the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office said in a statement. Both the house and the commercial building -- located on Radio Road -- were empty when Harrison broke into them on July 7, according to authorities. Firefighters put out the house fire and later learned that the fire in the vacant commercial structure extinguished itself.
