Fire crews responded to three arson-related vegetation fires that sparked Saturday at Natividad Creek Park in Salinas.
Crews on scene say the three fires started around 2 p.m. and stretched out to be about two acres combined.
The Wildland Response Team quickly came to the scene and put out all the fires before they grew out of control.
