Prosecutors are weighing charges against two men accused of setting a blaze at a homeless encampment.
Prosecutors are still weighing criminal charges against two Los Angeles men who are accused of intentionally setting fire to a homeless encampment late last month, a situation that sparked a brush fire and led to the evacuations of several homes in Eagle Rock and Glendale, authorities said Wednesday., both 25, on suspicion of attempted murder late Tuesday afternoon.
The fire spread about 45 acres and threatened nearly 100 homes in Glendale, fire officials said at the time. Nogueira’s father, Michael, is the president of the Eagle Rock Chamber of Commerce. Property records show a Daniel Nogueira with the same date of birth as the suspect arrested in the arson living at an Eagle Rock address. Michael Nogueira also lives at that address, which is less than a mile from the scene of the fire.
Pete White, executive director of the skid row-based Los Angeles Community Action Network, told The Times last week that there had been a rash of tent fires in the downtown area in August, oftentimes resulting from disputes.
