An arsonist is on the loose in Sonoma County, but it’s not the person authorities went after first.
Nine small fires were lit in a five minute span Sunday evening along Stony Point Road in Santa Rosa.
The fires ripped through dry grass, and threatened several homes, and immediately residents were buzzing about a suspicious red truck seen in the area.
“A neighbor saw a guy in a red truck throw fire out and it started a barn on fire,” witness Gabby Tannlund told KTVU, from her home across the street.
Investigators thought that driver might be tossing fireworks, but tracked down the truck and impounded it.
