Looters suspected of impersonating Forest Service workers in California
Looters raiding fire-scorched Paradise, Calif., may have disguised
themselves as US Forest Service workers to gain access to the restricted
area, according to a report Sunday. Two men dressed in yellow jackets — similar to ones worn by US Forest
Service personnel — were arrested in the smoldering fire zone near the
Sierra Nevada mountains, according to CBS San Francisco. It was not immediately clear what the men had been stealing. Police have been flooded with at least 53 reports of looters in the
region after a massive, fast-spreading wildfire ripped through the
region, the station reported. At least 23 are dead
in the so-called Camp Fire, which was sparked about 100 miles north of
Sacramento. Two more people have died in fires near Los Angeles. link
