Minot man sentenced for endangerment by fire

Casey Scott Vollmer, 33, Minot, was sentenced on Friday to 10 years in prison, all suspended but the 321 days he already served, and three years of supervised probation for deliberately starting a fire in a southwest Minot apartment on Jan. 2. He received a concurrent sentence of five years, with all suspended but time served of 152 days, and 18 months of supervised probation for two Class C felony charges of assault on two correctional officers at the Ward County Jail in June.

In the assault on an officer case, Vollmer punched two officers who had gone to check on him.

In the endangerment by fire case, Judge Richard Hagar also ordered Vollmer to obtain a mental health evaluation, to have no contact with the victims, to pay court costs and restitution yet to be determined. He was also ordered to pay court costs and restitution in the assault cases.
