A man accused of setting an East Islip bar on fire was arrested on Friday, according to police.

Detectives say Paul Lucia, of Islip, set the back area of Riley Fibbers on fire after he was asked to leave on Thursday night.

Everyone inside was evacuated and no injuries were reported.

Police say they identified Lucia as the suspect following an investigation at the business.

Officers found him inside car on Friday, which they say had stolen license plates.
