“I think if we had a fire … it would be a mass panic:” Residents are worried people could become trapped in traffic and be unable to escape if a fire starts amid giant crowds in the Hollywood Hills during Fourth of July.
But the area has become an increasingly popular place to illegally park and watch Fourth of July fireworks, due in part to social media.
So the I-Team took its questions about the potentially deadly situation to the area's city councilwoman, Nithya Raman, since residents have been asking her staff for a year to intervene. The city plans to add two additional LAPD cars and one parking enforcement officer to the 3-mile stretch of Mulholland the night of the holiday.
The city does put up barricades to discourage non-residents from parking in the Hollywood Hills on busy nights at the Hollywood Bowl and Greek Theater.
