A man has been arrested after firefighters caught him 'actively lighting fires' in Los Angeles county, it has emerged. Ruben Montes, 29, was arrested for arson on Sunday in Irwindale, California, roughly 16 miles away from Altadena, where the deadly Eaton Fire continues to rage. Firefighters were responding to a small brush fire in Irwindale when they witnessed Montes starting blazes in the area, police have confirmed. He was detained by officers at the scene and ultimately arrested for arson. Details surrounding the incident are limited and police have not revealed where Montes was booked. Police have also not revealed if Montes was responsible for starting the brush fire or if any of the blazes that he allegedly lit have caused damage. It is also unclear if he has any ties to the other fires ravaging LA. His arrest comes just days after an illegal immigrant was detained for allegedly setting a fire in Calabasas, west of Beverly Hills.
Then the chilly winds blew down Across the desert Through the canyons of the coast To theMalibu Where the pretty people play Hungry for power To light their neon way Give them things to do Some rich men came and raped the land Nobody caught 'em Put up a bunch of ugly boxes And Jesus people bought 'em And they called it paradise The place to be They watched the hazy sun Sinking in the sea You can leave it all behind Sail to Lahaina Just like the missionaries did So many years ago They even brought a neon sign "Jesus is coming" Brought the white man's burden down Brought the white man's reign Who will provide the grand design? What is yours and what is mine? 'Cause there is no more new frontier We have got to make it here We satisfy our endless needs And justify our bloody deeds In the name of destiny And in the name of God And you can see them there On Sunday morning Stand up and sing about What it's like up there They call it paradise I don't know why You call someplace paradise Kiss it goodbye
