This is a photo of brush fires burning in the Lynn Woods Reservation in Lynn Massachusetts. (WCVB) LYNN, Mass. — The Massachusetts state fire marshal says at least eight recent fires in the Lynn Woods were intentionally set, and officials are seeking the public's help in the investigation, WCVB Channel 5 reports. Approximately 400 acres of land burned as a result of what officials are deeming 'suspicious fires' that they say were set over a period of several days. 'Any fire can present a hazard, but we saw rapid fire growth threatening numerous homes in our community as a result of these fires,' Lynn fire Chief Daniel Sullivan said in a news release.
