The incident was caught on video by a witness and shared with DailyMail.com. 'No way,' Heard told the woman. 'You are not doing this. These are our houses. We tried to save all these people. You're not stealing from them.' 'I'm not looting sir,' she yelled back. 'I'm not stealing that. This is my stuff. I'm calling my lawyer.' As she strode back towards her truck, Heard said: 'You're not going anywhere.' A witness said Heard jumped in the passenger side of the truck and grabbed the keys to prevent the suspected looter driving away. LA sheriff deputies showed up and arrested the woman at the scene, on the 400 block of West Harriet Street in Altadena. Posted by: Skidmark 2025-01-23 |
