HUTCHINSON – A man suspected of setting a pair of fires on in May of 2014 was before a Reno County judge Wednesday for the reading of two charges against him.

Dustin Gordon, 26, is charged with two counts of arson for allegedly setting fire to a two story home and also a trailer that was used for storage.

He was transferred to the Reno County jail from Saline County this week after he was convicted and sentenced in October in three cases of arson in that county.

The fires were occurred on East Blanchard south of the intersection of Kansas 61 and U.S. 50, on the southeast side of Hutchinson.

When fire crews arrived, they found a fully involved two story house and also a second fire in a mobile home 1/8 mile east of the house that was fully involved as well. Both houses were vacant and had been for some time.

In Saline County, Gordon was convicted for two counts of aggravated arson and one count of arson and is currently serving time on those three charges.
