Winthrop Harbor Fire Department news
Here's a rewritten version of the text:

I just got off the phone with Dan, who sent over this interesting story from the Chicago Tribune about a local guy getting himself into some serious trouble. This guy, Keith Kauppi, who used to be a firefighter in Winthrop Harbor, is now sitting in jail on a million-dollar bond. Apparently, he's facing charges of aggravated arson and attempted murder—accused of trying to pin a couple of fires on his own aunt.
The first fire happened back in December at his aunt Kathleen's house. Then, there was another one in June where she got hurt pretty bad, suffering burns that were described as mild to severe. Things got even weirder when cops say Kauppi set her up to take the fall for the second fire in Pleasant Prairie. She was arrested but released after he finally confessed.
It turns out, the motive behind all these crimes might have been something far more personal than we initially thought. Police believe Kauppi was stealing from his aunt by forging her checks. When she wouldn't press charges against him earlier this year, he allegedly decided to go a step further—trying to cover his tracks by torching her place.
Last week, things took a dramatic turn when the aunt stayed at her brother’s house and a fire broke out there too. The nephew claims he woke up to find his aunt’s couch ablaze. He said he managed to douse the flames with water before hauling the charred furniture outside. Cops found traces of gasoline everywhere—on the couch, a blanket, and some clothes left outside. His aunt insists she didn’t do it and apparently hasn’t spoken to anyone since.
Things escalated quickly after that. Investigators noticed signs that Kauppi had been trying to forge checks again recently. That led to a long interrogation session during which he finally cracked under pressure and admitted everything. Afterward, he even helped lead an investigator back to the scene to point out exactly where he'd poured the accelerant.
This whole situation sounds like something straight out of a movie. It’s hard to believe someone would risk so much just to hide financial misdeeds. Makes you wonder what drives people to such extremes sometimes.
