Man Arrested Over Gann Fire Ignition | Sacramento News
Description
A man named Herbert Wayne Smith has been arrested in connection with the Gann Fire, which erupted near Hogan Dam Road and consumed over 9,000 acres—threatening homes, forcing school closures, and prompting a local emergency. Charged with causing the wildfire, allowing it to spread, and operating machinery without authorization, Smith has since posted bail, though authorities are still confirming his direct role. With crews battling flames and air quality plummeting, federal aid from FEMA is now on the ground as the fire continues to grow—and investigators dig deeper into its origins.
