More than 50 cars were involved in a street takeover in downtown Los Angeles early Saturday as some went up in flames, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.

Video shows a car completely engulfed by a fire, sitting in the middle of an intersection as a thick black cloud of smoke rises from the vehicle. Other cars can be seen as they try to drive around the inferno.

LAPD said several vehicles were impounded after authorities responded to the area near East 18th Street and Main Street, where participants intentionally set two of the cars on fire.

Firefighters received a call about an auto fire around 3 a.m., sending two fire engines as LAPD officers were also sent to the scene to investigate, according to the LA Fire Department.

No one was arrested, police said.

No one was arrested, let that sink in. This is our future, if these radicals continue in office.

"No one was arrested"

A middle aged white man doesn't use the correct pronouns...immediately arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to 5 years hard time.

Those skid marks belong on a rainbow crosswalk somewhere. They look so tacky on bare pavement.

Had an owner resisted having his car set on fire, the owner would undoubtedly have been arrested.

This happens a lot around los angeles, they stop and block freeways to do it and piss off hundreds of people, why? I have no clue. We used to do stupid crap in our cars like this, but we NEVER did it in the middle of streets or freeways, we would go to empty parking lots or out in the middle of nowhere where nobody gave a damn and we could only hurt ourselves. I bet 6 months in the County Jail for everyone involved, including the spectators, would cure this problem.

That's what they do with stolen cars.
Steal them, trash them having a "good time", burn them.

The implication is that the crowd somehow caused the fire, but how do we know that it wasn't just an EV spontaneous thing?

What I want to know is What Do The Insurance Companies Think of This?! Are these people covered for the damage to their vehicles? Or is it a total loss to them as the insurance companies don’t cover “street violence”?
