A 31-year-old man was arrested in the arson at a West Hills home, according to the LAPD, which said the investigation determined the fire was not motivated by hate.
A 31-year-old man accused of setting a U.S. flag on fire outside a West Hills home over the weekend has been arrested, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. Kevin Miller was booked on suspicion of arson of an inhabited dwelling Monday night, police said.
officials declined to comment Wednesday morning about what details led to that determination. However, the homeowner said detectives told her that the man did not appear to look at the mezuza in the video, and during questioning, he did not appear to have prior knowledge of the mezuza or the family. “I’m really happy that it doesn’t have to do with religion,' said Hadas, who asked that she only be identified by her first name out of fear for herself and family.
