GALVESTON, Texas (AP) - Galveston officials are investigating the torching of 30 palm trees in the last two months.
"What we've got on our hands, a serial tree arsonist, I've never seen before," said Galveston Fire Marshal Gilbert Robinson. "I've talked to colleagues of mine, and that's the first they've heard of setting palm trees on fire."
Robinson said the calls reporting burning trees have recently increased in frequency.
