Authorities sought the public’s help Wednesday to find an arsonist who sparked a business fire in Santa Ana.

The crime occurred at about 3:30 a.m. Monday in the 1000 block of East Sixth Street, the Orange County Fire Authority reported.

The suspect, who was armed, entered the business and used “accelerants to start and spread a fire,” an OCFA statement said.

“OCFA investigators, with the assistance of Santa Ana police detectives, are seeking to identify the armed male arsonist,” the statement said.

Investigators released a security video, and urged anyone with information on the crime to call 949-560-0665.
