Arson suspect detained for Kenneth fire

Officials in the West Hills area are investigating the Kenneth Fire that broke out Thursday afternoon as potential arson, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. One person has been detained in that investigation. Now, a police source tells FOX 11 that a man who was arrested Thursday in Woodland Hills may be linked to the fire. The arrest happened around 4:30 p.m. Thursday, near the area of Arcos Drive and Galendo Street. Residents say a man was riding around on a bicycle carrying a large blow torch, trying to set multiple old Christmas trees and garbage cans on fire. When the man rode away, neighbors followed him, and eventually stepped in.
