A minor was arrested on suspicion of second-degree arson Friday in connection with a May 27 brushfire at Central O'ahu Regional Park.

The youth was one of two youths seen by witnesses in an area where the 3:11 p.m. brushfire started. The youth turned himself in to police, was questioned and released to his parents.

The investigation is expected to produce more arrests, police said.
