By GREG RISLING, MICHAEL R. BLOOD and DAVID RISINGLOS ANGELES -- A German man has been charged with arson in connection with a rash of fires set in Los Angeles over the New Year's weekend.
Los Angeles prosecutors filed dozens of counts Wednesday against 24-year-old Harry Burkhart.
Burkhart is expected to make his initial court appearance later in the day. It wasn't immediately known if he had retained an attorney. Burkhart is suspected of setting more than 50 arson blazes that caused an estimated $3 million in damage. Authorities said they believe he was angry over his mother's legal troubles and went on a nighttime rampage of burning parked cars a day after she appeared in court last week.---
