While searching a fire scene for hidden pockets of fire, you find a book of matches and a cigarette rolled up in newspaper. You show it to the investigating officer because you are convinced that that was how the fire was started. The investigator is able to determine who the arsonist was from that evidence. Later, a reporter comes into the firehouse to ask you about the arson suspect who was just arrested. The reporter was told that evidence found at the fire scene led to the arsonist's being caught and wants to give you credit for helping in the case. How should you answer the reporter's questions?
