Person of Interest in Connection with Interstate Fire

Authorities have released images of a person of interest in connection with the November 11th fire underneath Interstate 10 that spread quickly over 8 acres, prompting the thoroughfare's closure.

Cal Fire says the person was wearing blue shorts, a black jacket, and a black backpack and was carrying a green scarf. He also had a knee brace on his right leg. Of note, authorities also said the subject appeared to have suffered visible burn injuries to his left leg.

An arson investigation remains underway and no arrests have been made. Anyone who recognized the individual in the images above was asked to call Cal Fire's arson hotline at 1-800-468-4408.
