A man barricaded himself in a burning home on the near west side of Indianapolis Saturday evening.
Per the Indianapolis Fire Department, crews were first dispatched to the 1100 block of Mount Street after they received a notification from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department around 5:50 p.m.
IMPD units were dispatched to the scene on a report of a domestic disturbance. When officers arrived, they relayed information about a residence fire in the area to IFD.
Firefighters found heavy fire emanating from the front of a house when they made it to the scene. They also discovered a car that was fully involved in flames in the home’s driveway.
IMPD helped IFD remove an uncooperative 58-year-old male from the house. Witnesses told first responders the man intentionally set the residence on fire before barricading himself inside.
According to IFD, police had to forcibly move a dresser that was blocking the entrance to the home. Once inside, officers placed the man in handcuffs and pulled him from the residence while the fire was still burning.
A public police report on the incident indicates Daniel Fred Luter was the man police arrested during the incident.
Luter has been preliminarily charged with arson of dwelling, arson that endangers human life, intimidation, escape and resisting law enforcement. The most serious of the charges Luter faces — arson of a dwelling and arson that endangers human life — are Level 4 Felonies. The maximum penalties for Level 4 Felonies in Indiana is a 12-year prison sentence and a fine of up to $10,000.
IFD reported that multiple rounds of ammunition went off inside the burning vehicle while crews were trying to extinguish the fire. IFD and IMPD investigators have determined that the blaze was intentionally set.
Per IFD, one firefighter sustained a “slight injury” during the incident. The firefighter was transported from the scene to IU Methodist Hospital.
IMPD and IFD are still investigating the domestic disturbance and subsequent arson.
