The Burned Out BMW
Goleta Valley, CA
The young woman, owner of a BMW found engulfed in flames along an Isla Vista street, “seemed more concerned about the jacket burning in the trunk†than the actual vehicle, according to the report. The 20-year-old victim, who did not appear to be in distress, continued talking on her cell phone to her parents when authorities arrived on the scene.
The fire, extinguished by fire fighters, incinerated the vehicle to the point that investigators could not find any usable evidence.
The BMW and another nearby car, believed to be a Ford Escort, were found burning on Del Playa Road at 3:40 a.m.
Found in the Goleta Valley Voice

Hey, with the price of fashion these days, that jacket could very well have been worth more than the car. Or maybe it was the credit cards in the jacket pocket. One thing for sure…if it was my kid they would be waking for a while.
