Firefighters battle LA arson fires
Description
RESENDING SCRIPT WITH CORRECTED SOURCING ONSCENE.TV, NOT ONSITE.TV
ROUGH CUT - NO REPORTER NARRATION
PLEASE NOTE THIS EDIT CONTAINS CONVERTED 4:3 MATERIAL
Video shot by onscene.tv showed firefighters battling a number of arson fires early on Monday morning (January 2) in the neigbourhoods of Los Angeles. The police and fire department believe these were part of a string of arson attacks.
Police arrested a man on Monday in connection with a wave of 53 arson fires targeting cars and structures, which caused more than 2 million US dollars in damages and left nerves in the second-largest U.S. city badly frayed.
Police declined to identify the man but said he was taken into custody in Hollywood after a sheriff's deputy spotted him driving a van similar to one being sought in connection with the fires.
Most of the fires were thought to have been started by the same arsonist in cars and some spread to carports and homes.
