A Yucca Valley man was arrested Friday, accused of trying to set fire to his home. Deputies and firefighters were called to the 9100 block of Hermosa Avenue in Yucca Valley just before 9 p.m. because a man, identified as Andrew Redmond, 19, was setting fire to papers inside a bedroom. Redmond was detained without incident, and firefighters determined there were no other threats of fire or hazards inside the home. Andrew Redmond was arrested on suspicion of arson, booked in the West Valley Detention Center, with his bail set at $100,000.
