The Myrtle Beach,South Carolina Fire Was Caused By A Man That Was Burning Yard Debris!


A man that was burning yard debris is responsible for the destruction of 70 homes & the displacement of scores of people.And,according to Fox News,this guy is only being given two fines for all the damage that he caused.The total of those fines is a measly $732 bucks.

Here's more from The Sun JournalMeanwhile, one man was ticketed Thursday in connection with a fire.

The man was ticketed for failure to notify the South Carolina Forestry Commission about an outdoor burn and letting the fire spread to another's property, said Hawkins.

"Were they the cause of the fire? We don't know that yet," Hawkins said.

"There is further investigation needed. Yes that burn caused a fire, but it doesn't mean it caused the (S.C.) 31 fire we are here to discuss today."

The man's name was not immediately available. Forestry Commission officials later said that the fire was a routine debris burn that was started over the weekend and was put out the same day. The commission said it rekindled on Wednesday."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
