Barger expressed strong condemnation towards those who attempted to burglarize or loot homes during this crisis.
In response to the alarming incidents, Barger stated, 'Shame on those who are preying on our residents during this time of crisis.' The wildfires have created a state of emergency in the region, with many residents already facing the challenges of evacuations and property loss.
