YCSO arrested the former fire chief of Crown King Fire on charges of theft and fraudulent use of a credit card. Spokesman Dwight D’Evelyn says 50-year old Mark Dillon was taken into custody last week at his home in Coolidge. He says the crimes occurred between August 2016 and June of 2017. During that time, Dillon had access to a department credit card, which he used for personal goods and services to the sum of $4,000. Detectives also located an employment application forged with the signature of a fire district employee and possibly used by Dillon while processing for new employment with another agency. Also, Dillon may have removed his personnel file from district offices without authorization.
