A tense situation unfolded in Los Angeles when residents apprehended a man carrying a blowtorch near the Kenneth Fire in West Hills, fearing he might start wildfires. The suspect, identified as Juan Manuel Sierra-Leyva, is reportedly an undocumented immigrant from Mexico, according to sources cited by Fox News journalist Bill Melugin.

NEW: Per ICE sources, the man seen in a viral video being subdued by residents & arrested by police w/ a blowtorch near the #KennethFire in West Hills is an illegal alien from Mexico named Juan Manuel Sierra-Leyva. He is in custody on a probation violation & has NOT been charged…

Sierra-Leyva was arrested for a probation violation, though no formal arson charges have been filed. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) plans to issue a detainer request to the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department, but California’s Sanctuary State law is expected to block cooperation. Sierra-Leyva’s court appearance is scheduled for tomorrow.

The incident has reignited discussions about California’s immigration policies, particularly as legislators debate allocating $25 million to help undocumented immigrants avoid deportation. Critics argue such policies attract undocumented workers for labor and economic reasons, but incidents like this raise public safety concerns.

BREAKING🚨: The suspect arrested while carrying a blowtorch during the L.A. fires is confirmed to be an ILLEGAL alien, per @BillMelugin_.

This isn’t the first time an undocumented immigrant has been linked to wildfire threats. In 2021, another suspect was charged with arson near Pacific Palisades. As California residents remain vigilant against arsonists amid wildfire season, this case has drawn attention to the complex interplay between immigration, public safety, and state policy.

    I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article.
