2 taken to hospital after jumping from burning Dayton home; 1 in custody

The condition of the two people taken to the hospital was not available.

Lykins did not identify the person taken into custody. However, Montgomery County Jail records show a man named Dennis Lee Treece, 42, was arrested at the scene Monday morning.

Treece is being held on three preliminary aggravated arson charges, but he has not been formally charged.

Fire crews responded around 7:40 a.m. to the house in the 2600 block of East Second Street.

Firefighters initially were able to enter the home to battle the fire, but had to exit the house and resume efforts outside after the floor began to collapse, Lykins said.
