NEW PORT RICHEY --
An 11-year-old boy was arrested in New Port Richey in connection with several arsons in his neighborhood.

According to police, the boy has been setting fire to sheds, bushes, lawn chairs and trees in his neighborhood since July.

Police said they've responded to so many fire calls along Indiana Avenue that neighbors now know them by name.

They said the boy quickly became the common denominator, spotted in the area of the fire each time.

On Wednesday night, as they were setting up surveillance, they said the boy was caught in the act by a neighbor.

Police say he confessed on the spot to starting six of the neighborhood fires, using items like flint rocks, a magnifying glass and a 9-volt battery.

Investigators said the child's grandmother, who he lives with, knew the whole time.

"The guardians at the house always appeared to cover for him," Cpl stated. "They actually knew that he was doing this. As of the case last night, the witnessed confirmed that. When she heard the sirens coming, she heard the guardian tell him to get back in the house as she was putting the fire out with the hose."

Police said the boy's father served time in state prison for lighting his mother on fire. The woman survived.

Investigators said they think this was a major reason behind the boy's actions.
