Iowa City Arsonist?

I was just reading the news story about the fires downtown and am wondering if Iowa City has a serial arsonist at work.

Investigators continue to investigate four fires that broke out early Saturday morning on two streets in downtown Iowa City, sending one firefighter to the hospital.

Thanks to the fast reaction of our firefighting and police personnel no one was seriously injured, but residents were forced to flee and the Red Cross is providing shelter. The fire and police departments are asking for anyone with information to please contact them at 319-358-8477. Let's help them find this person or persons, before someone gets injured or killed.

Having been through a devestating house fire years ago, I know how much you lose, that cannot be replaced in an event like this.

Good luck to the authorities!
