⚠️NEW: Los Angeles residents execute a leg hook takedown before making a citizens arrest after finding a man allegedly trying to start fires.
One witness said the men used zip ties and rope to detain the arsonist suspect.
The incident unfolded when a local was driving by and he saw the man with a yellow blow torch.
With help from neighbors, they cornered him and made the citizens arrest.
“We really banded together as a group. A few gentlemen surrounded him and got him on his knees. They got some zip ties, a rope and we were able to do a citizens’ arrest,” a witness said.
LAPD has not yet released the man’s name or his connection to the fires.
