PORTLAND, OR (KPTV) -

A convicted arsonist will spend more than a year and a half in prison for burning several cars in 2012.

Dustin Hall was sentenced to 19 months in prison Thursday. Last August, he set fire to at least one car at Sharp Automotive in southeast Portland. The flames then spread to several other cars in the parking lot.

Hall was found guilty of arson, criminal mischief and assault in January.
