A man is facing several charges, including attempted murder, after allegedly setting fire to a Wisconsin Rapids home.
Authorities say Michael Vandenbergh was seen on surveillance video near the residence shortly before the fire. The blaze spread rapidly due to the use of an accelerant. Officials say an adult and two children escaped safely, and investigators have ruled out an electrical cause. Vandenbergh is charged with three counts of attempted first-degree intentional homicide and arson, and has until January 2nd to obtain a lawyer.
