Cars set on fire in LA's Chinatown

Police are investigating a series of cars being set on fire in Los Angeles' Chinatown.

While an arsonist has not been identified, residents told FOX 11's Gina Silva that they have their suspicions.

"Unfortunately, there are a lot of unhoused individuals on a lot of dangerous substances out there. I mean, they're sleeping on our sidewalks naked during the day, and they're out running a muck a night, and no one is doing anything about it," said Daniel Finnerty, a witness.
