A-listers' mansions are looted

WILDFIRE looters have begun targeting Hollywood stars' luxury homes.

Criminals, some posing as firefighters, have rifled through homes of the rich and famous that have been evacuated.

Many A-listers, including Sir Anthony Hopkins, Adam Brody, Paris Hilton and Billy Crystal, have lost their homes to fires, which began on January 7.

But dozens of other high profile stars have been ordered to flee their houses, leaving their properties vulnerable to theft.

Among items recovered by police is an Emmy Award, along with almost £200,000 in valuables stolen from homes in areas such as Pacific Palisades - close to Santa Monica beach and nearby Mandeville Canyon.

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said: "These crimes are not only appalling but a brazen attack on our community during a time of unimaginable loss and grief."
