Police responded to 223 Cumberland Avenue on June 20, at 12:40 PM, after being called by the victim of a domestic assault.
Sol Bolton, 22, of Portland, was stated to be the assailant, and he was still there when police arrived.
Bolton had previous injuries to his arm, which were aggravated while he resisted arrest.
He was taken to Maine Medical Center for treatment of his injuries. When police went to remove him from the arrest van upon arrival at the Cumberland County Jail, they smelled smoke and saw a smoldering handkerchief on the floor of the van.
This led to a charge of arson, in addition to those of assault and refusing to submit to arrest.
