Thirty-eight Cars Torched

We hope these weren't snow tows or weed impounds or from some underprivileged families:
  • Firefighters battled massive flames Monday morning after more than 30 cars were set on fire in two separate arsons in Gresham and West Pullman on the city's South and Far South sides.

    According to Chicago police and fire officials, around midnight someone entered a fenced in lot in the 300 block of East 115th street and set fire to eight cars.

    About 40 minutes later, officials said someone entered a private tow yard in the 8800 block of South Genoa Avenue and set approximately 30 cars on fire. The dozens of burning vehicles were fenced for hours as glass broke and tires popped from the heat.
The good news is even though it's thirty-eight cars, it's only two arsons, so Crimesha is pre-downgrading any charges in anticipation of the holiday season.

I loved seeing the P.O. holding the fire hose while the fireman fights the fire. There is a reason why they have fire equipment on goof nuts. Comical

Serious question, what was "someone" trying to hide that was in these towed cars? Next question, who is responsible for these cars? No doubt, there is more than meets the eye with this insane shit.

It's okay, all the tow yards have those signs saying "Not responsible for loss or damage" so t hey're in the clear. The citizens are SOL though.

No security on these lots? No cameras? Were these cars technically in the custody and care of the city so they are on the hook ?

Ok, so you have a tow truck towing a car behind it, car being towed strikes another car in traffic. Which is the striking vehicle listed on the traffic report?. Now dont read the answer yet, think about it and scroll down.‐---------------------------. Answer, the tow truck is the striking vehicle and you list the vehicle being towed in the narrative.

Chicago politicians and media wizards should congratulate themselves on a long, tireless job well done - Chicago has finally achieved the status of an international city, rivaling the likes of Paris.

Sure hope these weren't City-Authorized tows......
Heard there are 38 low life lawyers lining up to file big lawsuits for the city's failure to keep the tow lots secure??
Loss of property....can't get to work....need a newer, better car.....
Don't want to be taxed more to pay for this shit.

The tow outfit on 88th and Genoa is known for towing semi trucks to their yard and then trying to charge 20,000 to 30,000 for the tow. Look at a former “customer” for that arson. They use several different names for the company there by itsall the same.

Will this lead to more unsolved crimes and lower clearance rates. Beck and his team are on it. Beck declared that these two cases are "heater" case. This "hot" caper will be interesting to watch play out. All kidding aside. Is someone trying to hide/destroy something, send a message, insurance scam, revenge. Another "who done it" in Shitty City.

By chance did any of those stored towed burnt’cars have a lost/mislaid SIM card in the glove box?

A whopping 38 counts...wow, that’s awful darn close to a powerful aggravated misdemeanor.
That person(s) unknown better knock it off if he/she/they don’t want to be prosecuted to to fullest extent of the law.

Next investigative lead will focus on who was the last, most irate car owner who “only parked there for a minute” that was $220 short ($150 tow, $60 ticket and $20 storage) of a release.

This is a result of rivalry between tow companies that are owned and operated by felonious gangbangers, AKA our politicians’ constituents and benefactors. Another example of Chicago values, although Trump and fellow Republicans are the ones demonized. This whole state is a festering swamp of corruption that would need to be sterilized after draining.

Probably an inside job on Genoa. I've heard horror stories about this place. They would tow a car under shady circumstances and then hold the car for ransom until the owner came up with $800 or $900.

Phewww. Hotel rule, indeed! Thank goodness for competent supervisors.

Can’t say the same for quite a few of Special Ed’s ridiculous merit hacks. Plethora of undeserving, embarrassing, half-wit Neanderthals!! Hey, not ALL of them, I suppose. Oh, how this city continues to impre— uh, I mean, continues to be an embarrassment... of epic proportions!

Actually each car would be considered as an arson if they were all torched and/or an accelerant was used on it.
Now if it just caught fire because it was too close to the other ones, then they wouldn’t.

Unless there is video we can assume all the cars were burning about the same time and most likely there is not much left to determine which one started 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc... Then there will be just 1 RD #

Yes, actually torching cars and buses has been a regular occurrence in the suburbs of Paris and ina few other French cites for decades. The Algerian refugees have been responsible for this.
