Spain - Bee Smoker causes Blaze.

A man from Coin has been charged with causing the forest fire that recently burnt 35 hectares of pine trees and brushwood in the Ciudad del Cine Hotel area. The blaze was apparently caused when the man was using a bee smoker without adopting the correct safety measures to prevent a fire. Police were able to locate the accused who was arrested and is now the 16th person this year to be charged with causing a forest fire.
