Suspected arsonist in McCully fire indicted

Advertiser Staff

A 30-year-old man who allegedly set a McCully apartment building fire that left four families homeless was indicted Wednesday morning on a charge of first-degree arson.

Kevin Yang is accused of starting the Friday blaze that destroyed two apartments and heavily damaged two others at a Hauoli Street building.
The fire started in the unit where Yang lived and �he was seen running away� from the scene, Deputy Prosecutor Lynn Park said in court Wednesday morning.
Circuit Judge Richard Perkins set bail at $100,000 after Park said Yang is considered dangerous and is now �transient and homeless.�
