"Two cousins have been charged with negligently setting the largest wildfire in Arizona history.
The Wallow Fire, which consumed 804 sq miles (2,080sq km), started from a campfire lit by Caleb Malboeuf, 26, and David Malboeuf, 24, both of Arizona, according to charging documents.
The two experienced campers left the fire unattended and went for a hike in the Apache National Forest on 29 May.
The fire destroyed 32 houses and cost more than $79m (£48.2m) to fight.
It was not fully contained until 8 July."...
