I seem to remember that it was a guy that was running an illegal tire dumping operation... no permit, no zoning and so on. Law enforcement, along with the EPA were going to show up to arrest him, but the day before they did, he caught wind of their operation, torched the tires and went on the run.

This not only compounded the EPA charges, I seem to recall that it also sparked a forest fire which may have threatened several homes.

Look at all the chemicals flying in the air, look at all the money that just burned down instead of recycling :S
