A man who set fire to three cars at Fox 5 San Diego’s station in Kearny Mesa pleaded guilty this week to arson charges. The flames set on the night of Feb. 26 also damaged a security gate access pad, a sensor and the front entry door to the news station. Some of the incident was captured by surveillance cameras on which Dimitrius Cannon, 42, appears to use an aerosol can and a lighter to spark the blaze. Fox 5 employees were able to extinguish the fires, and no injuries were reported. The suspect was arrested two days later on Clairemont Mesa Boulevard, less than a mile away from the Fox 5 station. At the time of his arrest, San Diego police said evidence was recovered from the suspect linking him to the arsons, but police did not disclose a motive for the fires. Cannon pleaded guilty to three arson counts on Thursday and stipulated to a state prison term of six years and eight months. He’s set for sentencing next month.
