A man was taken into custody after setting a series of fires at power poles and other properties near Fossil, Oregon, according to the Wheeler County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies said the fires were set last week in the hills north of Fossil.
A joint operation involving several local law enforcement agencies, Oregon State Police and the FBI resulted in phone contact with the suspect, who was persuaded to surrender peacefully.
