Maybe someone got sick of all the crap movies hollywood is coming out with? '-' no need to go after civilians for such a thing though and no need to start it in a city thats like an hour or so away from hollywood D;

Arson means a fire that was deliberately set... as in "Arson is suspected in the fire that burned down that house".

Not all of them though... but that's unbelievable. What do you do? The kid 'accidentally' started the fires... you can't exactly do much about that - although, putting the money damage of the fires etc. on the parents isn't exactly the best thing either
