Clad in the green patina of weathered bronze, the lampposts lining the historic Glendale-Hyperion Viaduct warded off the darkness that would otherwise engulf the spans. But in recent months, several of the lampposts have been stolen, reportedly sawed down and hauled away by unidentified thieves, some as recently as this week. According to the Los Angeles Department of Public Works, 22 of the historic streetlights are missing. For the latest news, weather, sports, and streaming video, head to KTLA.
