Police arrest arson and burglary suspect

GRANTS PASS, ORE. — Grants Pass police say they arrested a man in connection with an early morning shed fire Saturday but that’s not the only charge the man is facing.

Saturday evening, police responded to report of a burglary in progress on the 1200 block of Northeast 6th Street.

There they found and arrested 26 year old Lee Conway on criminal mischief charges.

They say he also fit the description of a suspect responsible for a string of thefts from vehicles earlier in the day.

Conway allegedly admitted to the crimes as well as starting a building fire early Saturday morning.
