Residents, already reeling from the smell of burning food and emergency response, now face steep towing fees and mounting stress. One auto shop owner was even filmed pleading his innocence and asking for time to move vehicles. While the LAPD cites vehicle code for towing from restricted zones, legal experts question whether the right law was applied — and whether the city should’ve relocated cars instead. Mayor Karen Bass’s office has pledged to return vehicles without extra fees, and Councilwoman Ysabel Jurado plans to introduce a motion to waive all remaining costs and create new protocols to prevent future mishaps.
