Cabazon must have a bug running around, seems like were seeing one or two fires a week in the area, they had a night fire last night or maybe sunday night, 24s is a two piece station so that might be helping

Gives me bad memories of that Esperanza Fire arsonist. Set tons of fires through the Banning Pass area before setting the infamous one that would end up killing 5 firefighters…

Yeah, thats my worry, Banning had someone setting all the abandoned buildings on fire, Im worried we have someone doing the same in Cabazon again. The last month has seen a lot of fires in area.
