A fire at the home of missing mom of four Nikki Saelee McCain brings out law enforcement, the media and the Shasta County Fire Department.

The Redding PD, Shasta County Sheriff's, and Cal-Fire L. E. all witness the growing blaze and multiple officers spotted walking the property while it was still on fire. Firefighters create a fire line to stop the fire from spreading to nearby homes, but several vehicles on the property appear to be completely burned.

Nikki’s husband, Tyler McCain, says he is cited by Cal-Fire for the blaze on his property. Cal-Fire says the fire was sparked by a failed catalytic converter that expelled hot fragments into dry vegetation. Tyler McCain says he attempted to extinguish the fire, but it spreads so quickly, he calls for help. Cal-Fire says the owner is cited for negligently causing a fire and burning another's land.

In the meantime, the imminent domestic Violence case against Tyler McCain now dismissed. Why? Because Nikki Saelee McCain, the alleged victim and states only witness, is still mysteriously missing. Without Nikki, there is not enough evidence to go forward.

The DA’s office reserves all rights to refile the case in the future. Nikki's sister says Tyler McCain is escorted into court by police through a back door and once charges are dismissed, he leaves through the back door and directly into a police van.
