Several more cars burned in suspected arson attacks in the Los Angeles area early Saturday morning, and authorities investigated if they were connected to nearly two dozen deliberately set blazes a day earlier, police said.

Seven or eight cars burned Saturday in the North Hollywood area, said officer Robert Collier.

He said he didn't have further details of the blazes, but said arson is suspected and there could be a link to the earlier blazes.

Funny how there is no mention that setting cars on fired is a muslim New Years tradition.

I'd bet the person(s) lighting cars on fire in in this story have never seen the inside of a mosque.

So it was a lone white guy setting cars on fire and not mobs of angry Muslim youths? Imagine that.

Read the Update:

He was arrested for 3 of the 21 fires. He’s not white, he’s black and apparently working with others.

http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-hollywood-arson-fires-20111231,0,3813815.story

Investigators and experts said the fires were highly unusual for even a serial arsonist because of the sheer number of fires in a relatively short period of time. Officials have not said how the fires were set or whether they believe one or more people are responsible.

Of particular interest was Samuel Arrington, a 22-year-old from Sunland. Arrington was arrested Thursday on suspicion of starting three fires that day along a stretch of Sunset Boulevard in the same area as several of the fires that erupted hours later. Arrington was never released from custody after his arrest and arson investigators questioned him Friday in search of some link between him and the fires set Friday morning, officials said.

I dunno. Looked white to me. Maybe a very light-skinned black. Probably a psycho no matter.

and apparently working with others.

Mobs of angry Muslim youths?

Apparently another person was arrested with Arrington and the police aren’t releasing his name.

So many fires so fast. Sounds like a group effort.

And the mass torchings continued last night after Arrington and his unnamed accomplice were arrested on Thursday.

Please allow me to be the first to point out that 1 or 2 cars would be a crime... but this many is simply domestic terrorist activity. Eco, islamo, occupio... soro?
