FBI Portland and local law enforcement agencies have been receiving reports that extremists are responsible for setting wildfires in Oregon. With our state and local partners, the FBI has investigated several such reports and found them to be untrue. Conspiracy theories and misinformation take valuable resources away local fire and police agencies working around the clock to bring these fires under control. Please help our entire community by only sharing validated information from official sources.
Then why are people being arrested and charged??????? This may be fake news.
Please read the article. It is a press release directly from the FBI. It addresses the social media rumors. It does not say arsonists aren’t being arrested. It says so far there is no evidence the arsonists are connected to extremist groups. Maybe that will change in the future.
From “FBI Portland,” so one would hope there is no political bias.
Press release above does not say it is addressing social media…
Yes why was my son surrounded by cops in Lebanon for waiting outside of a Mcdonalds while waiting for his wife.He wasnt arrested but the thought he might be one of the arsonists!
It all seemes to be a crock of crap
I don’t believe it!!! I believe ANTIFA and BLM are Behind These and I don’t care what the FBI says something up or stories getting way screwed up on their end no one’s going to tell me BLM and ANTIFA aren’t behind at least a lot of it cuz we all know that the Democrats are trying to destroy America and ANTIFA and BLM are right along with him
