Does this happen to be the fire that was started by the airplane that flew thru the wires and attempted to evade the authorities?

The airplane / power line incident happened on Saturday the 27th...The photos I uploaded were from yesterday (July,30)...Both incidents are very close in proximity to one another though...That story about the airplane clipping power lines is gonna be big trouble for somebody...Several people I know said the airplane was flying literally near rooftop level in the Alexander valley and over Geyserville...As far as I know they have not yet identified the aircraft, but someone will certainly be keeping the hanger doors closed for a while!!!
