Gateway Pundit
A man possibly connected to one of the wildfires engulfing California has been taken off the streets thanks to the help of some vigilant citizens who caught him trying to start a fire in their neighborhood.
KTLA reported that on Thursday afternoon, around 4:30 p.m. local time, police responded to an incident involving an individual with a blowtorch attempting to set fire to multiple Christmas trees and garbage near the area of Arcos Drive and Galendo Street in the Woodland Hills area of Los Angeles.
This came at roughly the same time as the Kenneth Fire, which erupted late Thursday afternoon in the San Fernando Valley and is now spreading through the West Hills. more here
They should have had the County Coroner on site along with the police. The police could be there to hand out awards to the citizens.
“He was like” and “we were like”
Yup. A story out of Kali.
…as long as they are taking out the trash, they need to take out THIS “chick”, whoever hired her, and EVERYONE above her that didnt FIRE her after she said THIS…

“Am I able to carry your husband out of a fire? He got himself in the wrong place.”
…I cant even BEGIN to wrap my head around the MASSIVE dereliction of duty this is, apparently INTENTIONAL dereliction of duty being PROMOTED by an ASSISTANT FIRE CHIEF.
This…woman…has no business around human beings in ANY capacity, let alone BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR RESCUING THEM.
…and she specifies “Husband” for some reason.
Maybe because “SHE” couldnt get one?
…I just…cant…
Please.
Make this FAMOUS.
“They got some zip ties, a rope and we were able to do a citizens’ arrest.”
They should have found a rope and made a noose, and hung the asshole.
…this is one of the very few things I agree with a Democrat on. This is really about riots, but I wholeheartedly believe the advice on arsonists should be vigorously applied as well…
‘I said to him very emphatically and very definitely that [he should issue an order] immediately and under his signature to shoot to kill any arsonist or anyone with a Molotov cocktail in his hand in Chicago because they’re potential murderers, and to issue a police order to shoot to maim or cripple any arsonists and looters–arsonists to kill and looters to maim and detain.”’

“shoot to kill any arsonist”.
Good advice then.
Good advice now.
This should never have appeared in the news, except perhaps in the account of an unidentified corpse turning up in the Spring.
It looks like they would have to call that fire the “Jose Fire”.
The original story I read said they caught him trying to light several Christmas Trees on fire that had been set out by the curb for garbage pickup. If that was the case they should have beat his ass to a pulp before L.E got there. I’m still betting he’s an illegal.
Doing the job Americans won’t do?
The first thing I want a straight answer on is he on any of the alphabet agencies payroll? We already know he was on their radar, so don’t bother with that bullshit.
Are You KIDDING Us? LAPD Has ‘No Probable Cause’ to Charge Wildfire Suspect Carrying Blowtorch With Arson

I’m thinking the blowtorch would have been enough. Now watch him sue the residents for holding him.
There was a lady on the radio saying they are in full panic mode trying to hide/cover up his immigration status.
Bet we’ll never hear about this guy again after his immigration status is determined to be non-legit.
JDHasty
I have a buddy that has some app on his computer to blow pics up, re digitize them so the image is clear. He saying the guy definitely looks middle eastern. Who knows. But like I say I’ll bet money that dude ain’t from here.
The ONLY appropriate punishment for arson is being burned alive. Why did they bother with zip ties when they already had his torch?
^^^^^
LOL, you wouldn’t run if some one started using a torch on you?
@Brad — He wouldn’t be able to run very effectively if they started in with the torch on his eyes.
Yes, I’m in a dark and bloodthirsty mood. Good thing I’m old and half lame and 3K miles away.
I believe if you go back after 9/11
one of the assessments of the report was that some the terrorist
playbook was disrupting our economy and causing chaos was forest fires.
