RENO, Nev. (AP) -- Reno police say a fire that burned a flat-bed trailer and started to spread to a home involved a resident's ex-boyfriend.

Authorities say they arrested 19-year-old Reno resident Jesse Bailey on Thursday on suspicion of arson, aggravated stalking and domestic violence.

Police say they responded to Edrie Drive about 1 a.m. Wednesday and found a trailer burning in a driveway. They say they were able to put the fire out quickly as it started to spread to a home.

Investigators determined the fire was likely arson.

Bailey is being held in the Washoe County jail on $25,000 bail.
