A Chillicothe man received a warning after setting a vacant trailer he owned on fire Friday.
According to Capt. Dennis McKeever, of the Ross County Sheriff's Office, deputies arrived at 786 Massieville Road to find a man standing next to a burnt down trailer with a garden hose, trying to put out the fire.
The report notes Robert Violette, 41, who owns several trailers on the property, set the vacant trailer on fire, citing he was "tired of renting out to drug addicts so he was burning (the trailers) all down." When the Scioto Township Fire Department arrived on the scene, Chief Ryan Horsley said they had to put out the fire, as opposed to Violette having put the fire out himself before they arrived.
