Two men are under arrest and scheduled to face a judge on aggravated arson charges after a small fire broke out at a Downtown high-rise building under construction overnight, Cincinnati fire officials said.
Duncan Ray and Ryan Barnes, both 20, were booked into the Hamilton County Justice Center about 2:30 a.m. Wednesday, jail officials said.
They are accused of purposely setting fires Downtown, including at a 17-story mixed-use building under construction on Sycamore Street and another building on Court Street, fire officials said and court records show.
