Car thieves show no love on Valentine's Day
PICO RIVERA -- Three cars were stolen from the parking lot of a night club early Saturday during a Valentine's Day celebration, authorities said.
Car thieves apparently saw a crowded Valentine's Day celebration at the El Rodeo Nightclub, 8825 Washington Blvd., as an opportunity, Los Angeles County sheriff's Lt. Jaime Baltazar said.
Three revelers exited the club to find their cars stolen, he said. The thefts are believed to have occurred after midnight.
The thieves likely worked together as a team, the lieutenant said.
"For something like that occurring, I don't think that's a coincidence."
