A few other outlets (though it’s the New York Post and similar, so not exactly bastions of competent journalism so grain of salt etc.) have sourced a photo of the the arrested suspect from this linked in for their articles:

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.

Do you know how far it’s advanced this morning into the drainage?

Good news there is probably more resources coming into camp today to help. And resources they probably can use in camp if needed. IAP looked skinny this morning.

@fyre Judging by the panorama view on Keller, and the angle on the map its near the mouth of bear creek and looks like it’s picking up some steam below lookout point. WD shows a similar perimeter

Went to Keller Peak lookout Sat. Sept 7 to view the fire, was in the tower talking with the volunteer lookouts when the mandatory evacuation order came in and tower was closed. I believe these are some of the last images taken of the tower prior to it’s loss on the 10th. Had a weird feeling and decided to take some photos of the tower just in case… well the just in case happened. Bummed that the vintage Osborne Fire finder, in addition to the 98-year old structure and historic artifacts in it were lost.

And yes, that’s rain on the tower windows. Was hailing and 60 degrees when the tower was closed.
