Several small fires have broken out in Garin/Dry Creek Regional Park around 5:30 this afternoon. Several agencies are working the fire: Alameda County, Fremont, Hayward and Cal Fire. Access is difficult but the 4 wheel drive engines are making their way around the hills to the various locations. Two S2T air tankers and the air attack OV10 were observed over the fire area.
Update: Thanks Hot Rod for the info...suspect in custody and per radio reports he may be related to fires in U.C. and / or Fremont last night.
Update: Just heard a Cal Fire Battalion Chief say that two were taken into custody, one by Regional Parks Police, the other by UCPD. One suspect was observed jumping on a Cal Fire engine. An arson investigator (or two) has been called out. The crazies have invaded the open space now!
A fire fighter saw a adult male suspect dressed in all black running and set another fire. They need to catch that MoFo!
