Santa Barbara, CA: Second firebombing of police station in two weeks

thumbnailfrom the press:

A firebomb tossed at the Santa Barbara County sheriff’s foot patrol substation in Isla Vista has caused minor damage.

There were people inside the building when the firebomb was thrown at the building on Sunday at 11:39 p.m. but no one was hurt.

A sheriff’s news release describes the damage as very minor.

Two weeks ago, two Molotov cocktails were thrown the substation, causing minor damage to stucco, an Operation Medicine Cabinet drop box for unwanted prescription drugs and an unoccupied squad car.

Investigators say it isn’t known if the two attacks are related.

There are no arrests.
