Man driving truck without front tire sparks NorCal wildfire

Fire season is well underway in California, and while some have obvious causes like fireworks or pyrotechnics at gender-reveal parties , some seem to be born out of a lack of common sense.

Take, for instance, the Flora Fire in Sonoma County, which officials say was caused by an Anderson man driving his truck for four miles without a front tire, creating sparks that then set three separate blazes, as reported by the Los Angeles Times .

The blaze grew to 36 acres and burned for four days before it was contained, according to Cal Fire.

The man, 44-year-old Justin Roy Jones, was arrested and faces a charge of unlawfully starting a fire to a structure, forest or property, Cal Fire told the Times.

He also was accused of violating his probation, though no further details were provided.
