Three arson attempts recently occurred within blocks of each other in a Santa Monica neighborhood, according to police.
Shortly before 7:30 a.m. on Feb. 26, police responded to two separate arson attempts on vehicles parked at the 1500 block of Yale Street and the 1600 block of Berkeley Street. Minimal damage was reported to the 1992 Volvo on Yale and the Cadillac on Berkeley.
Two days later, an unknown business at the 1600 block of Stanford Street reported arson to police at about 11:40 a.m. Someone apparently tried to light the door on fire. Damage was minimal.
