Seattle Police arrested a 22 year old Jacob Kokko Thursday night in connection with a series of arsons in West Seattle. He s currently in custody in King County Jail with bail set at $300,000.

Kokko was arrested at a bar near SW Oregon and California Ave SW after serving a warrant on his home and finding evidence linking him to several recent fires in West Seattle.

Detectives interviewed him and booked him into the King County Jail for investigation of arson.

So far, detectives have linked Kokko to four fires in the West Seattle area, including incidents captured on surveillance video on the October 12th and Halloween. Police believe the suspect may be connected to a number of other fires in West Seattle as well, but are still investigating and working with prosecutors to bring charges.

He was brought to the attention of police after his neighbor recognized him from surveillance footage and reported that she smelled smoke on him.
