Fire officials also believe Henry is connected to roughly a dozen other smaller grass, trash, and dumpster fires, and say additional charges are pending.
"We believe that a minimum of 15 incidents are connected to this suspect and expect to file additional charges as we work to complete our investigation," Austin fire spokeswoman Lisa Cortinas said in a statement.
Henry was arrested Sunday on an unrelated felony charge, officials said.
