At least 2 detained for suspected arson after Calif. fire

At least two people were detained after firefighters battled a series of fires in northern California this week.

According to reports, six fire spots were reported south of San Jose. Collectively, the fires burned at least 90 acres and were 90% contained as of Friday.

One blaze reportedly came dangerously close to homes, prompting some to evacuate their homes. Evacuation orders have since been lifted.

Fire crews suspect the fires were intentionally set.

“These were multiple small spot fires, potentially purposefully set,” stated San Jose Fire Department Chief Michael Van Elgort. “We have a suspect that we’re interviewing and that was witnessed in the act.”

In the meantime, officials are looking to question at least two more people. An investigation into these fire spots remains ongoing.

Third report today of fires. One at an amazon warehouse, one on a cargo sip in FL and this.

I know, fires happen all the time.

Riots have calmed down a bit at least though.

A big Amazon distribution in Redlands, CA burned today too.

Gotta wonder if it’s Antifa.

Wait till this summer in California. Don’t be surprised if these enemy agents/anarchist head to all the foothills where the upper middle class is, and start torching the hills/brush. They might wait until the 1st Santa Ana wind event. But don’t be surprised to see 20 or 30 fires starting at the same time.

If that ends up being the case, these idiots REALLY have no idea how much support they are generating for “Law and Order” candidates.

That style amazon is a one Billion dollar loss. I helped build that one.

I have no idea how you would light it on fire, it would take a LOT of accelerants. Most of the building is just conveyers and concrete.

The foothills are not upper middle class, they are the conservatives.

In fact, I will be very surprised if these anarchist haven’t torch all the hills surrounding S.CA. It’s where all the rich and upper middle class are!.

They came right out and said their goal is to attack the suburbs and make them pay. If they start dozens or more of fires in the foothills, it will totally choke off the fire resources. If they time it with a wind event, like the Santa Ana’s, it will cause total devastation.

It had a very extensive fire suppression system. 3 50 horsepower fire pumps. Sprinklers cover everywhere. That building is huge, one mile to walk around it.

The foothills are not upper middle class, they are the conservatives.

I've probably forgotten more about CA than most ever knew. If ya think only conservatives live in the foothill areas, such as Palos Verdes, Beverly Hills, Brentwood, Malibu, Holmby Hills, Laguna Hills, E. OC County Silverado Canyon etc, etc, I can't help ya.. Fact is these anarchist don't give two s**ts about that.
