▶ Watch Video: Man arrested in connection to wildfires near Spokane, Washington A 37-year-old man was arrested Monday for allegedly starting the largest of the three devastating Spokane, Washington-area wildfires that are leaving some residents with nothing.Aaron Farinacci, a Spokane resident who has a prior manslaughter conviction, was booked on suspicion of first degree arson in connection with the Old Trails Fire and was being held on $1 million bond, the Spokane County Sheriff's Office said.Authorities began investigating Farinacci after a witness saw him kneeling near grass where the fire began, Spokane County Sheriff John Nowels told a press conference late Monday. "We believe it was matches or a lighter. When he was detained ... he was found to be in possession of some waterproof matches and a butane lighter," the sheriff said, adding that Farinacci was only arrested in connection with the Old Trails Fire.With some 67,000 people under evacuation orders amid the three blazes, hundreds could be coming home to total losses."All of our memories are gone," said Anna Andreachi, a Spokane resident whose home was lost in the blaze. "My dad just died, and all of his stuff was still in there, too." More than 700 buildings in the Spokane area have been destroyed, and another 400 have yet to be assessed, officials said Monday. "It's a nightmare situation," Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson said. "This is likely the worst natural disaster in Spokane history."A partially melted street sign sits in front of a burned out residential home in the Balboa neighborhood of Spokane, Washington, on August 2, 2026.
