Among these, the Kenneth Fire has emerged as a key focus, with authorities suspecting it was intentionally set. A man has been arrested in connection with the fire, which has already scorched over 960 acres and shows no signs of slowing down.

The Arrest
According to reports from local law enforcement, the suspect was apprehended after being spotted in a suspicious act.

Witnesses say the man was riding a bicycle while carrying a large blowtorch, attempting to ignite trash bins and leftover Christmas trees in the area.

Concerned residents in the neighborhood acted quickly, detaining the man until the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) arrived to make the arrest.

The Independent reported that the suspect’s actions may have directly contributed to the outbreak of the Kenneth Fire, one of the multiple blazes currently ravaging Southern California. The fire department and

police are working together to investigate the incident and confirm the full extent of the suspect’s involvement.

Widespread Wildfire Crisis
The Kenneth Fire is just one of several blazes devastating the region. Among the most significant are the Palisade Fire and the Eaton Fire, along with the Hurst and Lidia fires. Together, these wildfires have created an unprecedented crisis, claiming at least 10 lives and forcing thousands of residents to evacuate. Entire neighborhoods have been reduced to ash, and the destruction has left a lasting mark on the affected communities. Seen More
