Cars are being set on fire in the dark of night, spotted by drivers between Lodi and Lockeford.
Chief Weber has been with the Mokelumne Rural Fire District for 25 years. While car fires are common for his department, he says the amount in the past two months is not.
Two in October, three in November, and already two in December.
"Obviously, if it's dark and it's in the middle of the rural areas at night, not too many people around, it's where they're getting dropped off at," Weber explained.
"It's a danger to the firefighters, danger to the health of the public and area -- and if it's not secluded, it's near a building or something like that, it can catch a building on fire," Weber shared.
"We're just keeping an eye on it," he said. "We want the public to know that if you see any suspicious activities, report it. Call 911 or law enforcement and let us know what's going on. We're just happy this is happening not during the summertime because they are still dangerous, but we don't want this to continue."
