NAMPA (AP) - Police in Nampa say a woman is being treated at a Salt Lake City hospital for burns suffered after she said her boyfriend doused her with flammable liquid and set her on fire during a domestic dispute.

The Idaho Press-Tribune reports the woman approached a police officer at 5:23 p.m. Saturday at a convenience store.

The boyfriend, 33-year-old Jesus Montes, was arrested later that evening on suspicion of felony aggravated battery and first-degree arson.
