Fire Investigators are strategically positioned throughout the state, and responsible for investigating fires, arson, attempted arson, or conspiracy to defraud, consistent with the arson laws of the State of Oklahoma.

Investigators respond to calls for assistance from fire departments and law enforcement agencies across the state to determine the origin and cause of fires. Where probable cause exists, they have the authority to arrest persons suspected of being involved in arson-related activities.

Each year, approximately 750 fire scenes are investigated, of which one-half are ruled arson. An estimated $15 million worth of property is lost each year as a direct result of arson-related crimes. The crime of arson carries a maximum of 35 years in prison and a $25,000 fine.
