Car Break-Ins at Trailheads & Tourist LotsTransport
Break-ins targeting visible valuables are common at trailhead parking (Griffith Observatory, Runyon Canyon) and tourist-lot areas (Hollywood Walk of Fame). Never leave anything visible in a parked car.
Costumed Characters on Hollywood BlvdCommon Scam
Costumed characters on Hollywood Boulevard use the same photo-then-payment-demand tactic seen in New York's Times Square.
