TRANSIENTS START ANOTHER FIRE IN TWENTYNINE PALMS

Twentynine Palms firefighters have been called to at least three fires in the same area in the last two weeks, started by transients trying to keep warm. Just before 3 a.m. Monday morning, a transient started a fire in a dumpster in the 4700 block of Adobe Road. Firefighters were called 3:15 Sunday afternoon to a stand of trees west of the intersection of Adobe Road and Amboy Road where a campfire, started by the same transient, had started smoldering in the trees’ fallen needles. Firefighters said the only damage was to portions of the tree. Late on the night of November 10, firefighters responded to a fire near Adobe Road and Calle Todd where tamarisk trees and fallen needles were burning. That fire is also believed to have been started by transients.
