A man remains in jail after authorities say he intentionally set a grass fire near the Kansas governor’s mansion.

The Topeka Fire Department says police arrested the 36-year-old man while firefighters worked to put out the blaze Monday afternoon. Authorities say the man was seen lighting the fire that burned six acres. The fire department needed nearly two hours to put out the blaze, but a city spokesperson said it was contained quickly so that the fire never got closer to the mansion than between 200 yards and 300 yards. Gov. Laura Kelly was not there at the time of the fire.
