SHERWOOD, Ore. — Police have charged three boys with reckless burning in connection with a fire that destroyed a train trestle in Sherwood, Oregon.
A fire investigator said careless smoking was the most likely cause of the Aug. 10 fire that burned eight acres along with the 85-year-old Portland and Western Railroad trestle.
Sherwood police also charged an adult in the case — a 27-year-old man accused of furnishing alcohol to a minor.
Sherwood is 18 miles south of Portland.
