Children playing with fire is a serious problem in the United States. In 1996, children playing with fire started 87,330 fires. Of those fires, seven out of ten were either outdoor trash or grass. As a result of the 87,330 fires started by children, there were 280 civilian deaths and 2,388 civilian injuries. In 1996, children playing with fire caused $278.4 million in property damage. There are many characteristics that indicate a potential juvenile firesetter. For more information or to answer juvenile firesetter questions, contact Assistant Chief Larry Rauch at lrauch@Frankfortfire.org. |
