Los Angeles authorities have detained scores of people for looting, as arrests over theft and curfew violations surge while wildfires continue to wreak havoc across the area. Nine people have been charged for looting in the Palisades and Eaton fires, and one was charged with arson for setting a fire at a public park in the city of Azusa. The fire was extinguished, Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman said on Tuesday.
Curfew orders are in effect from 6pm to 6am in areas under mandatory evacuation orders, including parts of Santa Monica. Law enforcement officials at the press conference said the curfews were meant to safeguard against looting and violent criminal activity. In addition to fire risk, water and air quality issues, Angelenos and fire victims have also had to deal with reports of scammers posing as Federal Emergency Management Agency workers and first responders.
