Authorities are investigating 26 tree fires since March in the Mount Washington, Glassell Park and Silver Lake areas of Los Angeles, fire officials announced Thursday.
The Los Angeles Fire Department, along with the Los Angeles Police Department and a special agent from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, are investigating “various suspicious” vegetation fires, LAFD Captain Erik Scott said in a statement.
No reports of significant damage or injuries have been associated with the fires.
“Determining the cause of these fires remains a high priority, in an effort to increase public safety,” Scott said.
Anyone with information about the fires was urged to contact the LAFD Arson Tip Line at 213-893-9850 or LAFDArson@lacity.org.
