Four more cars were set on fire overnight in San Francisco. Police say this brings the number of arson attacks since the weekend to almost a dozen. 
The most recent fire happened at about 3:25 a.m. when a Honda was found burning at La Playa and Balboa streets near Ocean Beach. Two cars were found on fire at Francisco and Powell streets in North Beach at 2 a.m. A fourth car fire was reported at Newcomb Avenue and Selby Street in the Bayview neighborhood about 11 p.m. Tuesday.
Over the weekend there were four other car fires. The fires came a day after three cars were torched and a fourth vehicle was targeted on streets off of Geary Boulevard.
Police say the auto arsons come as officials continue to investigate a series of portable-toilet fires that have occurred since late last year. In some cases, the arsonist ignited outhouses with newspaper.
Police say in one of the car-related incidents early Tuesday, someone saw a burning newspaper underneath a Ford truck, kicked it away and doused the fire with a water bottle.
