The fire in the gorge was caused by a teenager and his friends. They were throwing fireworks and smoke bombs in the hot and dry forest. No one told him to stop and they all thought that it was funny. They're probably not laughing anymore as this started a huge wildfire in the gorge and put so much at risk!
The best punishment for these teenagers is probation! Obviously these kids can’t be trusted outside of supervision. With the mix of probation, the fire they started, and everyone being mad at them should be a big enough punishment
