MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) - Mobile Fire-Rescue Department arson investigators and the Mobile Police Department are seeking a man they say was caught on camera attempting to cause a fire or explosion in a home.

A Mobile family told FOX10 News he is an ex-boyfriend who broke into a woman’s house they believe with the intent of committing carbon monoxide poisoning. Surveillance video footage from inside the home captured the act, they said.

Investigators say Devon Traywick, 44, is wanted in relation to the weekend incident. They say he was identified on the camera footage where he is viewed committing an overt act in an attempt to cause a fire and/or explosion.

In addition to the burglary and domestic violence charge, Traywick is wanted on charges of attempted 2nd-degree arson, according to Mobile Fire-Rescue.

According to the Mobile County District Attorney’s Office, warrants have been signed for all three of the above charges.
