A man suspected of arson was arrested at Maxwell Farms Regional Park in Sonoma on Sunday afternoon after he was seen leaving a creek bed where a fire was burning, authorities said.
Three Sonoma County Probation officers patrolling the area because of ongoing fires in the region noticed Jesus Fabian Gonzalez, 29, walking out of the creek area and a plume of smoke behind him, Sheriffs Sgt. Spencer Crum said.
Sheriffs Deputy John Grohl was called to the scene and extinguished the fire, which was then completely doused by Sonoma Valley Fire Protection District personnel.
Gonzalez was wearing a trench coat and told officers he started the fire because he was cold, Crum said.
Gonzalez lives under a bridge nearby and is well known to law enforcement, he said.
He was arrested fon suspicion of felony arson and transported to the Sonoma County Jail for booking.
He’s the fall guy to save the power company from the bill.
Gonzalez lives under a bridge.... just like that schmutz that started the fire that dropped the section of I-85 in Atlanta. Enough with these people who live under bridges!
Been to Hawaii recently?
I call for “Common Sense Illegal Alien Control”! Do it for the children!
I wonder if he has ties to La Raza.
Or the drug cartels...
