IE Wildfires Costing Taxpayers Millions

Cal Fire officials said that since 2012, taxpayers have paid more than 204 million-dollars to protect their homes from numerous wild land fires. The lack of rainfall and unusually dry season has led to an increase in fire activity in recent months. Taxpayers may even may more as the cost is expected to rise since there is still three weeks left in the fiscal year. Tony Shin reports from Beaumont for the NBC4 News at 6 p.m. on June 10, 2013.
