A 33-year-old Lolo man has denied charges that he poured gasoline in his estranged wife’s hair salon and used his divorce papers to set the building on fire.
KECI-TV reports that Shawn Robin Gawronski pleaded not guilty to arson Tuesday in District Court in Missoula. He also denied a criminal mischief charge alleging he damaged vehicles belonging to friends and relatives of salon owner Jennifer Warner.
Court records say Gawronski was sitting in his truck, gun in hand, near the burning Gifted Hands salon in Frenchtown when deputies responded to the March 21 fire. The fire happened on the day Gawronski was to respond to the divorce filing.
He is also charged with violating a restraining order.
