Man Accused Of Setting Brian Head Fire Pleads Not Guilty

The man accused of accidentally causing the Brian Head Fire while burning weeds on his property pleads not guilty.  Robert Lyman’s lawyer entered a not guilty plea on a reckless burning charge in a Saint George court room yesterday.  The fire sparked back in June after authorities say the 61-year old used a weed torch on his property and flames grew out of control.  It ultimately burned more than 70-thousand acres and destroyed 13 homes.  Lyman faces up to a year in jail if convicted.  Over the weekend, Bryan Burr died while directing straw mulch drops on the burn scar.
