CALIFORNIA BRIEFING / LOS ANGELES
- Share via
A 44-year-old Glendale man on probation for an arson conviction has been sentenced to 16 years in state prison after pleading no contest to arson stemming from a series of fires in Griffith Park last year, prosecutors said Monday.
As a result of the plea, prosecutors dropped three felony counts of arson against Gary Allen Lintz, who admitted to the special allegations of great bodily injury to a firefighter and of having a prior arson conviction. He could have faced 20 years if convicted on all the counts.
