Investigators say mower sparked Stouts fire Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted Aug. 13, 2015 at 10:18 AM Updated Aug 13, 2015 at 10:26 AM Posted Aug. 13, 2015 at 10:18 AM Updated Aug 13, 2015 at 10:26 AM » Social News Fire investigators say the Stouts fire apparently was caused by someone mowing grass in the afternoon when it was banned because of high fire risk. Fire officials say that because the person mowing was allegedly in violation of a regulated use closure, the individual may be liable for fire suppression costs and damages resulting from the fire. Officials did not immediately release the name of the person responsible. To date, the Stouts fire has burned 23,841 acres, and suppression costs have reached $22.4 million. It is the largest wildfire burning in Oregon.   MailTribune.com Writer Posted Aug. 13, 2015 at 10:18 AM Updated Aug 13, 2015 at 10:26 AM » Comment or view comments Reader Reaction » STAY INFORMED Email NewsLetter Sign Up Today Sign up for our newsletter and have the top headlines from your community delivered right to your inbox.
