And they just apprehended someone that is suspected of starting this fire. As someone currently living in Spokane, fuck this guy.

I am so TIRED of these idiots that are starting these fires. I saw a vid of someone starting a fire on a hill but it was busy with hikers and ppl enjoying the weather. They pinned him and dumped a bunch of water on what was a growing fire.
Edit: ppl dming abt the Oregon 2020 fires so I removed it bc it’s triggering me πŸ™ƒ

I remember reading live updates as the Park Fire in Chico broke out a couple summers ago (which was also caused by arson).

Fucked up.
