The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced that Tyrie Rashad Dunn, aka “Chaos,” 37, of Lodi, New Jersey, was indicted by a federal grand jury for maliciously damaging a building by fire or explosive material and use of explosive material in the commission of a felony.

According to Acting United States Attorney John C. Gurganus, the indictment says that on Jan. 17, Dunn carried and used two Molotov cocktails to set fire to a rental property in Pottsville during the early morning hours, while the five building tenants were asleep. Several of the tenants had to jump from a second-story window to escape, resulting in bodily injuries.

Dunn fled from the scene of the fire to New Jersey, where he was apprehended 10 days later after a car chase and the assault of law enforcement officers. Separate criminal charges for that incident are currently pending in New Jersey.

The case was investigated by the Pottsville Police Department, the Pennsylvania State Police, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Assistant U.S. Attorney Sarah R. Lloyd is prosecuting the case.

The maximum penalty under federal law for these offenses is 30 years of imprisonment, a term of supervised release following imprisonment, and a fine.
