A man has been arrested for allegedly trying to steal a fire hydrant in the Signal Hill area, a trend that authorities say is on the rise in Los Angeles County.

Surveillance video captured the Oct. 23 incident and showed the man, using his parked car as a screen, appearing to use a wrench to unscrew the bolts at the base of the hydrant.

Officers patrolling the area spotted the man as their SUV drove past the would-be hydrant thief’s vehicle, according to video released by police.
The officers then contacted the suspect, identified as 53-year-old Jorge Beltran Carrillo of Los Angeles, and took him into custody without incident.

Carrillo was arrested and booked on theft-related charges, police said in a Facebook Reel posted Thursday.

A guy with a name like "Jorge Beltran Carrillo" is not from LA.

These blacks and browns are stealing public utility infrastructure more frequently. It is evidence that they are unfit to live in civilization. So many bridges in Los Angeles are dark because they strip out the copper wiring.

What would the Romans do to someone they caught fucking with the aqueduct or tearing up the roads?

@WhiteAngloZaxxonPro Gotta be, they would BBQ the ass of a junkyard owner that buys municipal property. Whatever happened to stealing bronze flower vases from the cemetary?

The bolts on the hydrant and his screws are loose. If that was a wet hydrant he would get launched likely. First time seeing a hydrant thief.
