Deputies arrived to a possible burglary at a restaurant in the 8700 block of East Valley Boulevard in Rosemead just after 2 a.m. October 6 and discovered a broken window to the building. A person was seen inside, said Lt. Kusayanagi of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Temple Station. The person was still being medically cleared as of 12:44 p.m., many hours after being hospitalized for smoke inhalation. While deputies believe the person was committing a crime, a motive is still unknown, Kusayanagi said. Arriving deputies could not gain access to the building after discovering a gate was likely chained or locked after the suspect went inside, Kusayanagi said.
Firefighters, dispatched at 2:44 a.m., were unable at first to enter and fight the flames until the suspect was detained. Once the suspect was secured, firefighters knocked the flames down by 3:27 a.m. There is much smoke damage inside the restaurant, making it difficult to determine what the suspect was doing inside, Kusayanagi said.
