CLAREMONT — Dodge County investigators have arrested a Claremont woman in connection with at least two fires started in the apartment complex where she lives. The 36-year-old woman was scheduled to be charged with felony arson in Dodge District Court this morning, Sheriff Gary Thompson said.
The two fires were comparatively small and were in common areas of a large complex in the 100 block of West Front Street.
There was a fire in an entrance-door frame on Monday, and a fire was set March 22 in a recliner in a hallway, Thompson said.

The woman’s apartment was searched and she was arrested Monday. Thompson said she admitted setting the fires.
Another arson in March at the complex involved a small fire set beneath an apartment door.
