Windsor Man Arrested in Somerville Arson

27-year-old Ben Alan Manley of Windsor has been arrested in connection with a vehicle fire in Somerville earlier this month.

From the State Fire Marshal’s Office:

Investigators with the Maine State Fire Marshal’s Office have arrested on June 11, 2025, on a warrant charging him with Arson, Aggravated Criminal Mischief, and Unauthorized Use of Property in connection with a vehicle fire in Somerville. The charges stem from an incident on June 2, 2025, when investigators responded to a report of a vehicle fire on private property in Somerville. The vehicle had previously been reported stolen out of Augusta. The owners of the property where the vehicle was found are not connected to the incident. Manley was arrested at the Kennebec County Jail, where he was already in custody following his arrest last week on a probation violation.
