The reason why option C is wrong is because no where in the stimulus is it mentioned that the arsonists are the main cause of fires in Enderton. So it doesn't have any effect (weaken/strengthen/what so ever) on the argument author is making. However, if you look at the option D, it brings in a new information that most fires are caused by the lightning and thus even if the city bans the outdoor fires, it'd still not work. Option C could've worked had it said, most fires are caused by arsonists, then again banning outdoor fires wouldn't have done anything to the problem. But the way C is worded now, it has no effect on the argument and thus not the correct answer choice.
Hope it helps.
