WILTON -- Police issued a summons Tuesday to a Wilton man who allegedly set fire to an acquaintance's ice shack around midnight Saturday.

Michael Cook, 23, is charged with aggravated criminal mischief, a felony. Cook became a suspect after Wilton Police Chief Dennis Brown collected evidence at the scene and interviewed him Tuesday, according to Brown.

Loss of the ice shack and fishing gear inside is estimated at about $2,000.

Brown said some residents saw the fire, but no one reported it to the fire department. The shack's owner, James Boivin, of Wilton, notified police the following morning.
