Algonac fire deemed arson
Port Huron Times Herald
Algonac Fire Chief John Stier said a blaze that ripped through about 150 acres of brush March 18 was intentionally set.
The fire started shortly before 5:40 p.m. in a grassy area near a bike bath in the Algonac State Park.
Stier said the flames originated at the end of the path near Sherwood Lane and Michigan Street and spread from the city into Clay Township.
He said they are also investigating a second fire in the area that was reported about 9 p.m. March 24.
Stier said the second fire was quickly extinguished because the charred area didn’t have much fuel for the flames.
