Justin Wayne Halstenberg, a 34-year-old man from Norco, faces nine felony charges related to the Line Fire in San Bernardino County, including aggravated arson and causing bodily injury to a firefighter. The fire, which has consumed over 37,000 acres and caused millions in damages, is believed to have been started by Halstenberg after he attempted to ignite two smaller fires on the same day. Investigators found evidence linking him to all three fires, suggesting intentional arson. Prosecutors have indicated that additional charges may be added as the investigation continues and the fire progresses. Halstenberg's actions have led to significant destruction, including one destroyed home and at least one firefighter injury. He is currently being held at the West Valley Detention Center and is set to be arraigned soon, with potential sentences ranging from 10 years to life if convicted of aggravated arson.
