A man is under arrest after barricading himself inside his ex-girlfriend's RV and then setting it on fire Tuesday morning in Seattle's SoDo district, police said. Officers responded to the scene, in the 800 block of South Dakota Street, at about 4:30 a.m. after a 44-year-old woman called 911 to report that her ex-boyfriend was there in violation of a no-contact order, said Detective Patrick Michaud of the Seattle police. The woman said she had been living in the RV and the man was supposed to stay away under the court order. Police quickly surrounded the vehicle and found the 43-year-old suspect locked inside.
