Feds: Pyro-Terrorism a Real Threat in the U.S.

U.S. Forest Service official Robert Baird says responders need to be ready to combat pyro-terrorism.


Ultimately, the goal is to protect the public and responders from any harm pyroterrorists may be trying to inflict, Baird said, adding that watching out for each other will help.

“When you roll into a fire, make sure everyone is protected and there are no easy targets,” Baird said. “Protect each other and bring everyone home.”
