A family in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida is seeking answers after their car was set on fire in their own driveway early Sunday morning. Lori Brown, the mother of the family, expressed her shock and dismay at the malicious act that put her entire family at risk. Brown’s son’s car was parked outside their home when neighbors heard an explosion and saw the flames, prompting them to call 911.
Surveillance footage shared by neighbors showed two individuals walking to the scene before fleeing shortly after. This incident is not the first time the family has been targeted, as they previously reported vandalism and tire slashing on their vehicles back in September. The total value of the stolen items from her son’s car is estimated to be at least $700.
Palm Beach Gardens Police Department is currently investigating the incident, as the family seeks justice and closure for the traumatic experience. Brown has filed insurance claims for the damaged vehicles and some neighbors are even raising money for a reward to help find those responsible. The family is left wondering why someone would choose to target their son, who they describe as an honor-roll student and athlete with a great circle of friends. Brown emphasized that her son does not deserve to go through such a senseless act of violence and hopes the perpetrators will be brought to justice soon.
