NYPD vehicles torched in suspected arson attack in Brooklyn



Eight NYPD vehicles were torched early Thursday in a suspected arson attack in Brooklyn, police said.

Police and FDNY responded to a report of multiple vehicles ablaze at a lot in Bushwick at the intersection of Central and Dekalb Avenues — just a block from the 83rd precinct station — around 1:30 a.m. Thursday.

Six unmarked vehicles and two unmarked vehicles were damaged, cops and sources said. No injuries were reported.

Police did not immediately give a suspected motive for the attack.

However, it comes as anti-ICE protesters have started running wild in the city, with some brazenly admitting they would set fire to police cars, similar to disturbing scenes in the riots in Los Angeles.
