Three men charged with illegal camping, starting a wildfire in US National Park may face up to six months in prison

Sunrise at Isle Royale National Park.

Three Michigan men have been charged in federal court with offences relating to starting a wildfire and camping illegally in Isle Royale National Park.

The charges stem from the 2022 Mount Franklin Fire, which burned 10 acres of land and was suspected to be human-caused. Now, a news report by the National Park Service alleges that  Dylan Kenneth Wagner, 29, Jason Arden Allard, 28 and Scott Warren Allard, 30 were responsible for the blaze when they illegally camped in the park on August 12 and 13 of that year.
