Authorities said about 400 acres of land burned as a result of the suspicious fires set in the Lynn Woods Reservation. Several brush fires that recently scorched hundreds of acres on the North Shore were set intentionally, state and local fire officials announced Wednesday. Authorities believe that at least eight separate fires were set on May 12, May 13, and May 17 in the Lynn Woods Reservation, State Fire Marshal Peter Ostroskey said in a joint statement with Lynn Fire Chief Daniel Sullivan and Department of Conservation & Recreation Chief Fire Warden Dave Celino.
