| 0:00.0 | This is John Batchler, colleague Jeff Bliss, Pacific Watch, comments on the arrests and the |
| 0:07.2 | suspicions around people in neighborhoods looting. People driving by at night caught on the |
| 0:14.1 | ring cameras that are on every front door in these empty, darkened neighborhoods, |
| 0:18.9 | not burned, just evacuated, or some burned and others standing |
| 0:23.4 | intact, people catching burglars on their home video equipment set up to monitor the house when |
| 0:31.5 | they're not at home, a story that's going to grow over these next days and weeks. The electricity is down in many of |
| 0:39.3 | these very well-to-do neighborhoods and Jeff Bliss on the beginning of the burglary looting, |
| 0:47.8 | suspicious activity in the tragedy of Los Angeles fires, more of this tonight? |
| 0:56.4 | All of that is true. |
| 1:05.4 | I heard the sheriff today saying they've apprehended about, arrested 39, maybe 40 people for curfew violations, burglary, carrying weapons, that type of thing. |
| 1:09.7 | And we were waiting to hear from LAPD and some of the other jurisdictions about their numbers. |
| 1:14.3 | And the thinking is, you know, when it's all of a sudden done, you're looking at probably 100 people at least arrested for burglary and curfew violations. |
| 1:22.4 | And this is an ongoing concern. |
| 1:24.6 | We have lots of video of people breaking into homes or driving, |
| 1:30.7 | looking suspicious, driving around neighborhoods with blacked out windows and then being chased |
| 1:35.5 | off by local residents, even cameras that people have in their homes, like those ring cameras, |
| 1:41.8 | videotaping people who are in there robbing their homes. |
| 1:45.2 | So this is a big concern, along with arsonists. |
| 1:48.1 | There have been a number of arsonists caught throughout this past week. |
| 1:52.1 | Some have just been caught on video and some have been caught by the police. |
