Photo: Diane Edwardson, April 8, 2013. An hour or so later, the LAPD was waiting for a tow truck to haul the car away. The patrol officers said the 4-door Toyota was registered to an owner in Southgate, but not reported stolen. They said no owner was around.
At about the same time, a LAFD Arson Investigator was on the hill looking for witnesses. Word went out on the Neighborhood Watch email list.
This was a weird one, since it's been a few years since a stolen car was last set on fire, and that was usually restricted to under the freeway on Rosebud Ave.
