An Austin man faces charges for a three-alarm in Frisco that destroyed one house and damaged seven others. 

Jonathan Webb, 29, was arrested Tuesday evening after he was captured on surveillance video after starting a small fire in an alley, Fox 4 reported.

"Whether it was the one that burned completely, the ground, the one next to it that had the roof, that was damaged. There were fences that were damaged. Some of the folks across the street had damaged their windows from the heat," said Kelly Kistner, fire marshal and public information officer for the Frisco Fire Department,

He remains in jail as the investigations continue.
