Boy Started California Fire, Officials Say
By DAISY NGUYEN, AP
SANTA CLARITA, Calif. (Oct. 31) - A prosecutor will be asked to consider the case of a boy accused of starting a massive wildfire by playing with matches.
Fueled by ferocious desert winds, the fire quickly spread, burning more than 38,000 acres and destroying 21 homes.
The boy, whose name and age were not released, admitted to sparking the fire on Oct. 21, Los Angeles County sheriff's Sgt. Diane Hecht said Tuesday.
"He admitted to playing with matches and accidentally starting the fire," she said in a statement.
The boy was released to his parents, and the case will be presented to the district attorney's office, Hecht said. It was not clear if he had been arrested or cited by detectives.
