GENEVA, Ill. - A 46-year-old man allegedly set his own home on fire in order to get two visitors to leave, police said.

Dean Craig was charged with felony arson after allegedly splashing rubbing alcohol on the floor of the two-story home in Aurora Township and using a lighter to ignite the fire around 1 a.m. Sunday, the Kane County Sheriff's office said.

When authorities arrived at Craig's home, which is owned by his mother, it was engulfed in flames, police said. Craig and his two guests were not injured.

Craig allegedly had asked two visitors to leave, but when they refused, he threatened to light his house on fire, police said.

Craig was being held Monday at the Kane County Jail on $25,000 bond. He is scheduled to appear in court on June 9.

well it wasn't even his house, his mom owned it, so I guess he's not that dumb afterall. and he has a place to stay: in jail.
but now that the guests know they weren't welcome, think they'll visit him again.

and now I wanna know what did the two visitors do and/or come there for? jehovah's witnesses, I bet. that'll do it every time
