We are NOT implying that the California fires are an act of terrorism however; the threat of pyro-terrorist attacks pose a significant risk to the U.S. and the fires in California and in Greece earlier this year should be a wake-up call.

If memory serves, one of the huge fires in Arizona a few years back was set by a firefighter/arsonist. If you're looking for a fellow who knows what he's doing ... a firefighter is a good first guess.

Apparently it's not all that uncommon for pyros to become firefighters.

Earlier Wednesday, the California Highway Patrol arrested a motorcyclist who was caught setting a brush fire in San Bernadino County, near Lake Arrowhead. It is not known if the suspect, John Hund, 48, of Hesperia, was responsible for the fires that ignited Sunday in that area.
