The Seattle Fire Department says a fire at Kinnear Park in Queen Anne was intentionally set and has been deemed an encampment fire.

Seattle police told KOMO News their arson, bomb squad, and Fire Marshal 5 are all investigating the incident.

The SFD confirmed that a 64-year-old man detained during Tuesday’s fire on an unrelated assault warrant has now been arrested for reckless burning and possession of dangerous weapons (spring blade knife and fixed-blade knife).
