It looks like there is a new fire in the foothills. Does anyone have any news?

I understand a vehicle was seen driving up Hwy 80 in this area throwing out burning paper just before it started.  lovely.

I recall hearing that the 2 grass fires on Green Valley Rd (near the Purple Place in EDH) in late August were caused by some idiot throwing burning paper out the window.  I hope this isn't a trend...

If found, that's some serious jail time.
