Jonathan Czyzewski, 37, of Levittown, PA remained held in the Bucks County Correctional Facility in Doylestown pending extradition to Bergen County.
Czyzewski set fire to a 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup truck at MFT Auction off Money Street at 4:40 a.m. July 30, Bergen County Prosecutor Mark Musella said.
Flames engulfed the pickup and quickly spread to other vehicles on the lot, the prosecutor said.
Lodi firefighters doused the blaze, which Musella said destroyed or damaged nine vehicles in all, including the truck.
There was no extension into the building and no injuries were reported.
An investigation by detectives from his Major Crimes Unit and Lodi police found Czyzewski to blame, the prosecutor said.
Czyzewski is charged with aggravated arson, arson and criminal mischief.
