SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- Police arrested a man suspected of setting fires in San Francisco's South of Market area on Wednesday and say he may not be the only suspect they're looking for.

Investigators say Anthony Bejarano is only suspected of setting one fire which damaged a BMW last week at a luxury high rise.

Police arrested Bejarano after releasing surveillance photos and video of him inside the garage of One Rincon Plaza.

He's set to appear in court on Friday on one count of burglary and one count of arson.

The San Francisco District Attorney's Office says other fires set recently in dumpsters and at construction sites were likely set by someone else.
