A man is accused of setting a fire at a Moberly house.
Police say the fire was set on purpose at about 3:40 a.m. Sunday on the front porch of a house on Union Avenue.
They say they spotted Jacob Davis less than an hour later while responding to a disturbance on Taylor Street. He allegedly had things on him that linked him to the arson. He’s also related to the victim.
Davis is now in jail.
