Caught on video, San Luis Obispo County Sheriff deputies are looking for an arsonist who broke out a window and used a container of gas to burn the 1998 Ford truck parked in the Maria Vista Estates development where the victim, Leroy Morgan, works.

Abandoned for almost four years, after the previous developer filed for bankruptcy, some of the primarily completed homes were taken over by squatters or robbed of appliances and fixtures.

Approximately 24 homes are slated to be finished and placed on the market during March.
