It turns out that the “climate change” causing California’s wildfires includes a crazed bum who was caught allegedly using a blowtorch to ignite them.
Residents of Woodland Hills apprehended the suspect who they saw riding around on a bicycle on Thursday setting several Christmas trees and garbage cans ablaze, reports the New York Post. It just so happened to be the same time California’s Kenneth fire began, according to locals.
“He was like, ‘I can’t stop. I can’t stop. I’m not putting this down. I’m doing this,'” one witness told Fox 11, claiming the bum was “very focused on moving forward” with what he described as a blowtorch.

Still, the Los Angeles Police Department insisted they have “not enough probable cause” to arrest the suspected arsonist “on arson or suspicion of arson.”

They’re going to let him go, aren’t they? pic.twitter.com/JJITjfx704
“Therefore,” he was only “arrested on felony probation violation.”
It is basically a slap on the wrist.
