Cal Fire identified a suspect in the four recent arson attacks on the UC Berkeley campus and authorities made an arrest Monday, the agency said.

Oakland resident Casey Goonan, 34, was arrested on suspicion of "the firebombing attack of a UC Berkeley Police Department vehicle and three other arson attacks" on campus during June, according to Cal Fire . He is being held at the Alameda County Jail on $1 million bail and faces multiple felony charges, including possession of and use of destructive devices and arson.

Mogulof could not confirm if the two incidents are related to posts online from an anonymous pro-Palestine group that declared a "week of action" to protest the development of People's Park and the police treatment of protesters at UC Santa Cruz and UCLA. Cal Fire did not mention any motive associated with Goonan's alleged crimes.
