Spain — Two people suspected of starting the forest fire which destroyed 1,400 hectares on El Hierro have been taken into custody by the Civil Guard.
They have been named as 44 year old A.M.P. and 25 year old A.L.P. Reports say the fire was caused by a thrown-away cigarette butt while the two men were out hunting in the area.
