Prosecutors in Jackson County are moving ahead with their case against the man who they say lit eight fires over the past five months.
The D.A.’s office announced the charges yesterday against 46-year-old Daniel Johnson. He’s accused of setting the fires in the Black River Falls area. The first fire was back on April 9th, and the last fire was August 10th. Firefighters say they ranged in size from a couple feet to more than 16 acres in one case. There are no reports of any injuries, though there are plenty of reports of damage.
