Kevin A. Delhotal, 37, was arrested Thursday in Peoria by the U.S. Marshals Great Lakes Regional Fugitive Task Force, La Salle police said in a Friday press release.
Delhotal was also picked up on a Putnam County warrant for failure to appear on the charge of aggravated battery.
Arson and home repair fraud are Class 2 felonies carrying prison sentences of three to seven years.

The home repair fraud charge follows an investigation by the Peru Police Department’s detective division into activities reported in June of 2025.
Court dates are pending in La Salle County Circuit Court.
