A convicted arsonist was charged Thursday with setting 10 fires in three days in the San Fernando Valley that burned cars, trucks and motorhomes as part of a larger spree that caused an estimated $1 million in damage.
In one incident, three adjacent motorhomes were torched in the same blaze, said David Liske, senior arson investigator with the city Fire Department.
Kurt Kaye Billie, 34, of North Hollywood was charged with 20 felony counts of arson and one count of aggravated arson, which alludes to his previous conviction in Japan while he was serving in the Marines.
