Suspected pyro caught on camera setting SoCal mall fires tried to take officer’s gun, cops say

An alleged firebug accused of setting multiple fires inside the popular Ontario Mills mall tried to take an officer’s gun as police took him into custody, authorities said.

Luis Javier Gallegos Jr., 28, of Rancho Cucamonga, was arrested after disturbing video appeared to show him torch a True Religion store inside the mall, as part of a series of fires set in the popular shopping destination.

Cops in the video are seen grappling with the suspect, pushing his head into the floor as they place him in handcuffs while shoppers watch in disbelief.   

Gallegos was charged with felony arson, resisting arrest, making criminal threats and trying to take an officer’s gun during the scuffle.
