An Abington man was arrested Friday morning after police say he attempted to set fire to the Abington Police Chief's cruiser outside department headquarters. Authorities said that around 9 a.m., a lieutenant spotted the suspect, identified as 39-year-old Franklin Cederholm, pouring gasoline on the chief's marked cruiser parked right outside the station at 215 Central St. Surveillance video released by the Abington Police Department shows a man approaching the SUV and pouring liquid onto the driver's side of the vehicle.
