The Bully Fire was a wildfire that started on July 11, 2014 at 3:37 PM PDT in Shasta County. The fire quickly spread to Шаблон:Convert, and it was only 5% contained. During the next day, dry weather coupled with a heat wave allowed to fire to advance to Шаблон:Convert, prompting mandatory evacuations to be issued for the region, as well as several miles of road closures. During the next few days, the wildfire exploded to Шаблон:Convert, prompting additional evacuations, since the wildfire was only 25% contained. A couple of days later, the Bully Fire reached Шаблон:Convert, but the containment also increased to 45%. By July 18, the wildfire had expanded further to Шаблон:Convert, with the containment only at 65%. During the next few days, containment gradually increased to 95%, before progress stalled on July 22. However, the increase in containment allowed the road closures and the evacuation orders to be lifted. During the next 4 days, firefighting efforts continued to slowly extinguish the Bully Fire, until full containment of the perimeter was achieved on July 26, at 8:00 PM PDT. Fire patrols lingered for the next couple of days to work on extinguishing the blaze, and on July 28, the Bully Fire was reported to be 100% controlled.

During its duration, the Bully Fire destroyed a total of 20 residential structures. A total of 21 injuries and 1 death were also reportedly caused by the fire, which was determined to be human-caused.

In 2016, Freddie Alexander Smoke III was arrested by police in Indiana and extradited to Shasta County. He pleaded no contest to charges of arson and involuntary manslaughter, and was sentenced to five years in prison and restitution.
