Carey Hart, a former professional freestyle motocross competitor and the husband of singer Pink, posted a photo with a warning that wildfire looters will be “shot on site.”

“It’s unfortunate that some people take advantage of others in a crisis. While the Malibu fires have been burning, some locals have been fighting off and defending their property against the fires,” he wrote.

Then, he added that “there have been sightings of looters breaking into homes” in the area.

“Well, if you are a looter, think twice if you are heading back into malibu. #DefendYourLand #2ndamendment,” he wrote on Instagram along with a black-and-white photo of about a dozen gun-wielding men.

A sign posted in the area, according to the Instagram post, says “Looters will be shot on site.” It also said, “PDC Posse.”

For her part, Pink tweeted her thanks to first responders. “Just need to say THANKYOU to all of the firefighters. All of the first responders. All of the helpers. The thing to look for in tragedy is all of the helpers. We’re all so grateful for your bravery and selflessness,” she wrote.
