Man Arrested for Starting Spokane’s Deadliest Fire | Washington DC News

A Spokane man has been arrested for allegedly starting the most destructive wildfire in the region, the Old Trails Fire, which has razed 640 homes and displaced 60,000 people. The 37-year-old, Aaron Farinacci, faces first-degree arson charges and was found with waterproof matches and butane—evidence that sealed his arrest. Though he has no prior arson record, he’s a convicted murderer from Arizona. Two other fires remain under investigation as officials scramble to assess damage and seek federal aid amid what the governor calls Spokane’s worst natural disaster.
