The ex-husband, identified as 49-year-old Eric V. Jackson, was seen throwing multiple Molotov cocktails at the trailer, which was occupied by his ex-wife and the boyfriend's mother. Fortunately, all attempts to ignite the firebombs failed. Jackson then attempted to set the trailer on fire by spraying lighter fluid on the awning and manually igniting it, but this also did not succeed.

Jackson was apprehended at the residence without further incident and has been booked at the Chelan County Regional Justice Center. He faces serious charges, including attempted murder, first-degree domestic violence, first-degree assault, and first-degree arson. He remains in custody as of the time of the press release.
