Investigators had been at the scene at the Mission San Gabriel since the fire began on July 11, 2020, but were only able to thoroughly examine the building beginning on July 15 once engineers and structural specialists were able to stabilize loose debris. The investigation remains ongoing and a definite cause is still being determined by investigators.
An individual was charged for a separate attempted arson incident in San Gabriel on July 12. The individual was arrested for an unrelated charge. The investigation into the Mission San Gabriel incident remains ongoing.
