November 8, 2023 – CAL FIRE officials report that in addition to CAL FIRE's role of putting fires out, we're also charged with determining the cause and making an arrest, if warranted. To date, CAL FIRE Law Enforcement Officers have made 95 arrests. This mission is vital. People threatening the lives and/or property of others must be brought to justice. 

If you see suspicious fires or activities, report them anonymously to the Arson Hotline at 800-468-4408. Your information could be the key to averting future disasters and safeguarding lives and property. Let's unite in the fight against arson.
