(WSVN) - An arrest has been made after a pair of arsonists damaged a historic Key West landmark.

The Southernmost Point Buoy in Key West is back to looking as good as new after it was repainted.

The buoy was charred after two men set a Christmas tree on fire in front of it on New Year’s Day.

Police arrested one suspect, 21-year-old David Perkins.

Perkins is from Leesburg, Florida.

They have also obtained a warrant for the second suspect, 21-year-old Skylar Rae Jacobson, who is expected to turn himself in.

Jacobson is from Texas.
