Man Arrested for Arson on 'Red Flag' Day

Adam Gilmour, 48, has been arrested and charged with fourth-degree arson in connection to a wildfire near Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, which burned 20 acres and threatened three homes. The fire, reported on a high-risk 'Red Flag' day, was swiftly contained by firefighters. Gilmour, who has a long criminal history, including previous arson charges and an active warrant, was identified after a 911 caller saw someone fleeing the scene. Authorities found evidence pointing to a makeshift campsite as the fire's origin. In addition to the arson charge, Gilmour faces charges of possession of narcotics and other unrelated felonies. The incident has sparked renewed focus on enforcing rules around homeless encampments, as arson is cited as the leading cause of wildfires in the area.
