Another person has been arrested, suspected of involvement in the massive forest fire in Chile in February. 137 people died in the flames and thousands of homes were destroyed.

The man, a volunteer firefighter and employee of Chile's disaster preparedness authority, is suspected of having started at least one of the fires. According to the police, he "liked to play the hero, to participate and help in emergency situations".

Two other people have already been detained in the case.
