Police Arrest Arson Suspect ... Claim He Started Brush Fire
TMZ ^

Posted on 01/11/2025 5:08:37 PM PST by TigerClaws

A man was arrested in Azusa -- a city just east of Pasadena where one of the largest fires in L.A. is raging -- Friday ... and, cops claim he may have tried to start another fire.

Azusa PD tells TMZ ... officers were dispatched to a local park just before midnight in regards to a brush fire -- where they claim a witness told them the man who lit the fire was still at the scene. asuza california pd press release sub facebook

Officers located the suspect -- a "transient" named Jose Carranza-Escobar -- who they claim admitted to lighting the fire. Cops then arrested Carranza-Escobar.

Los Angeles County Firefighters arrived and put out the blaze -- and, several other government departments are now assessing the extent of the damage caused by the fire.

Police have a "zero tolerance policy" for incidents like these ... so, it sounds like they plan to bring the hammer down on people who allegedly light fires in the area.

In fact, the L.A. County District Attorney has already assigned a prosecutor to the case from the arson unit ... and police tell us the evidence will be presented as soon as Monday for possible charges. Pacific Palisades Fire In Malibu

He’ll get free room and board in a secure cell, medical and dental care, and free legal help. No more living on the street or in the park.
What he should get is a quick public hanging.

I remember stopping at a metered on-ramp to the freeway in LA one night. I remember I looked to my right and saw a bunch of eyes looking back at me from the bushes. Bush people.

Azusa....If you pronounce it quickly with a heavy emphasis on the Z you’ll sound Japanese general.

They let the guy go that the people detained - the illegal that had 4 cell phones and a UN debit card. I mean, each of those phones probably triggered an Incendiary device.

Isn’t this guy a hero though?

I mean, he’s striking back for the working man against the millionaires and billionaires making profits off the backs of the working man, right?

Luigi is a hero - why is this guy a pariah?

The one thing Trump should do to help CA and prevent future wildfires is to make arson a death penalty federal offense. Arsonists should be sent to ADX Florence if not Gitmo.
