Nice to see @washingtonpost today following up on the theory I reported Friday: that fireworks started Palisades Fire. Witness told me it started in ‘exact same spot’ as a late New Yrs Eve fire. Other evidence points to arson.

@toddmakurath @LAPDHQ Thanks Todd. Good Q. As reported in story, @LAPDHQ told me Thurs AM ‘no reports’ of arson. But @LASDHQ are repeatedly avoiding my questions. I keep asking, they keep not answering. Would love them to tell me/us.

UPDATE: After LAFD Chief Crowley hugged her staff goodbye this afternoon, a source in her office said, she returned from a meeting with Bass and told them ‘I’m not fired yet’. Things are volatile at City Hall, it seems.

‘She was going into the meeting, telling everybody goodbye, because she was told the whole purpose of the meeting was to fire her,’ a source close to Crowleys office said. ‘Whatever happened in that meeting, minds got changed. ‘Either Bass realized it would be suicide to fire her, and came to her senses, or Crowley talked her out of it.’
NEW: Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass’ office says the @MailOnline report that “LA Mayor Karen Bass dismisses fire chief Kristin Crowley” is FALSE @ABC7
