Milford Men Accused of Firebombing House with Toddler Inside

Two Milford men have been accused of throwing Molotov cocktails into a house while a woman and her child were still inside it, according to Telegram and Gazette.

Stephen M. Silva, 21, of 14 Merrimack Road, Milford and Kyle S. Dewispelaere, 26, of 14 W St., Milford, N.H. allegedly started a fire in a Fitchburg, MA home while a 31-year-old-woman and toddler were inside on Saturday night. Joseph E. Brown, 41, of 81 Putnam Hill Road, Lyndeborough, N.H. is also being charged in connection with the attack.

The men allegedly used beer bottles and gasoline-soaked rags to create the explosive fires. They were arraigned Monday in Fitchburg District Court and held without bail pending the dangerousness hearings.
