DARYN KAGAN, CNN ANCHOR: Right now we focus in Arizona, where the part-time firefighter connected with the worst wildfire in Arizona history will be in court in the next hour. Our David Mattingly is on the story. He is in northern Arizona, in Flagstaff, this morning.</s>DAVID MATTINGLY, CNN CORRESPONDENT: A federal magistrate here in Flagstaff, Arizona, will soon decide if 29-year-old Leonard Gregg will remain in jail. Gregg, arriving a little while ago in the custody of federal marshals, was indicted yesterday by a federal grand jury on two counts of arson. The part-time firefighter from the White Mountain Apache reservation is accused of starting the Rodeo fire on June 18. Gregg allegedly was hoping to earn some money by fighting the fire. That fire now 80 percent contained, firefighters in the mop-up stages in most areas, a total of 468,000 acres burn so far. Gregg's arrest is creating some tension in the affected areas, residents of the border town expressing anger that someone from the neighboring reservation may be responsible for the destruction of hundreds of homes. Reservation leaders, however, arguing they are victims as well. The Chediski fire, also started on reservation land, reportedly as a signal for help by an injured female hiker. No charges have been filed yet in that case. Leonard Gregg, however, has remained in jail since his arrest, in part for his own protection. A judge today will decide if he is allowed to leave while his case makes it way through the federal courts. David Mattingly, CNN, Flagstaff, Arizona.
