From the SB SO press conference reporting Cal Fire Law Enforcement officers were in the area of the Line fire shortly after the initial dispatch, and used the initial cause and origin determination, plus the review of license plate reader cameras to identify a suspect vehicle and a suspect in the investigation of the cause of the fire. Deputies from the Highland SB Sheriff’s station assisted in the service of a search warrant for his home and vehicle, which turned up evidence supporting his arrest Sept 10th. He has been booked into the West Valley Detention center and an enhancement of “no bail” was granted this morning. The LE investigation reports will be now be turned over to the SB County District Attorney’s office for followup. He may also be a suspect in other earlier fires.
