A 46-year-old Scranton woman faces charges after police said she tried to intentionally set a fire at an apartment building in Dunmore over the weekend.

Dunmore police officers responded to 1810 Green Ridge St. on Sunday around 7:09 p.m. on a report of a disorderly female who left a hat on the porch that was on fire, according to a criminal complaint.

The building has four apartments consisting of at least six adults and three children under the age of 13, and all those residents were home Saturday night into Sunday morning, police said.

Officers were unable to make contact with one of the apartments, meaning there may have been more victims, according to the criminal complaint.

Upon arrival, officers noted there was no active fire and that the female — identified as Jennifer Kania — was no longer at the scene.

Tim Lasher told officers he had a long argument with Kania on Saturday that carried over into Sunday, and said he observed a hat that had been set on fire under the porch, police said.

Officers found the hat, noticed it was burned, and called Detective Eugene Mentz to the scene, according to the criminal complaint.

Before Mentz arrived, Lasher took the burned hat to a garbage can and swept the area; however, visible marks remained on the concrete pad where the hat was burned due to the synthetic material melting, police said.

Officer Ryan Williams secured the hat for evidence using nitrate gloves and a state police fire marshal determined the origin of the fire was the location where the burn marks were observed, according to the criminal complaint.

Mentz determined the hat was approximately 20 inches away from wooden steps, that there were dry leaves under both sets of steps on the ground below the porch, and that the porch was built using dry lumber, police said.

During an interview at police headquarters, Lasher told officers he dated Kania on and off for the past two years and that he confronted her Saturday about suspected drug use, which led to an argument, according to the criminal complaint.

Lasher also told police Kania left the residence at 3 p.m. Saturday and he suspected she removed a security camera from the front porch, which she had done in the past, officers said.

Additionally, Lasher showed Mentz several text messages including one where Kania accused Lasher of cheating, which he continually denied via text, police said.

Another message sent by Kania to Lasher at 9:48 p.m. Saturday read, “Omw (on my way) with your stuff. Your camera is on your front porch, right? By the step, go and get it before someone else steals it and I get blamed for it,” according to the criminal complaint.

Mentz noted the messages were filled with incorrect punctuation and that Kania first explained she was on her way to the residence, and then said she had left the camera on the front porch by the steps.

Lasher showed Mentz another group of text messages from Sunday where he accused Kania of burning the hat and leaving it at his residence in which she responded by sending a middle finger emoji, police said.

Evandro Silva, who lives on the floor above Lasher, told Mentz he saw the burned hat Sunday morning on the concrete pad, according to the criminal complaint.

Lasher told officers he bought the hat for Kania as a gift, and Mentz said a photo of her wearing the hat matched the hat collected by Williams.

Police charged Kania, 806 Woodlawn St., with nine counts each of criminal attempt of aggravated arson, criminal attempt of arson, and of recklessly endangering another person; and one count each of arson endangering property and risking a catastrophe.

As on Monday, Kania remained in Lackawanna County Prison in lieu of $75,000 bail. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Nov. 13 at 10:30 a.m.
