Jacobe De Leon O Shea Ferguson, 30, is charged with arson causing bodily injury or death
– The suspect in the 2018 San Marcos apartment fire that left five people dead was a Texas State University student at the time.
Ferguson was arrested “without incident” on Wednesday in the 700 block of East Slaughter Lane in Austin. As far as what led them to Ferguson now, Henderson said the importance of the origin-and-cause report “could not be overstated” but said he wouldn’t share details.“There is no easy button for investigations,” Henderson said, noting that the arrest took longer than anyone had hoped.“We have been working diligently to bring this investigation to a close and to hold the person responsible accountable,” ATF Asst. Special Agent in Charge Robert Topper said.
