A woman who was arrested for driving under the influence also faces additional charges in connection with sparking a wildfire in Calaveras County that prompted evacuations Sunday.
The fire was reported just after 1 p.m. east of San Andreas after California Highway Patrol officers were investigating a report of a woman driving up Mountain Ranch Road as her car was emitting sparks, officials said.
Officers arrested Renee Hogan for driving under the influence, CHP said.
Investigators said they determined Hogan was driving her 2002 Kia Rio on a right rear rim that was creating sparks. Her vehicle later burned as the flames spread.
Betcha a bottle of fine wine that she wasn’t drunk but strung out on meth. That’s meth territory.
Hope that frog didn’t get burned up.

Pot and a “narcotic analgesic”.
