The Fresno Fire Department is seeking any information that may help unmask a serial arsonist responsible for burning down four homes and displacing families.

The FFD Fire Investigations Unit believes the suspect to be a middle-aged female. They are seeking any information from anyone who has seen similar notes or has information about people who could be suspects.
