South Carolina authorities have arrested and charged Alexandra Bialousow of Myrtle Beach in connection with a fire that burned more than 2,000 acres around March 1.
South Carolina Forestry Commission (SCFC) law enforcement officials determined that a fire pit on Bialousow's property allegedly ignited the 2,000-acre Covington Drive Fire.

"Bialousow is accused of not taking the proper precautions to prevent her debris burn from escaping and negligently allowing fire to spread to ‘lands of another.’ Witnesses reported seeing Bialousow intentionally start a fire in a backyard fire pit that was in close proximity to a tree line within Covington Lakes Subdivision on March 1," SCFC said in a press release.
