Police say 28-year-old Marissa Padavich was seen on surveillance video at several burglary scenes on Saturday, November 16.

She is accused of stealing a motorcycle, and throwing a gas can at the owner of a garage police say she attempted to break into.

Padavich was arrested Sunday, November 17, after police responded to a disturbance at Genesis East, where police say she used a lighter from her hospital gown to try to set the vehicle on fire.

She is being held on a $39,000 bond and faces several charges, including felony arson, domestic abuse assault resulting in bodily injury, and third-degree attempted burglary.
