Explosion on Limassol Parking Lot Burns Three Cars
An explosion occurred in Limassol late yesterday evening, when arsonists targeted three cars, and a Molotov cocktail was thrown at a fourth.
According to the police, emergency services received reports of the explosion and the fire around 10:45 PM, which involved three cars parked near a residential building in Germasogeia. One of the vehicles belonged to a 21-year-old man, while the other two were antique cars owned by his father.
Firefighters quickly arrived at the scene to extinguish the flames, and the area was cordoned off. This morning, criminal investigators and a bomb disposal expert arrived to examine the site.
The investigation revealed that a previous attempt had been made to destroy a fourth car belonging to the same family using Molotov cocktails. Fortunately, no damage occurred.
Police suspect the attack may have been motivated by financial disputes. Preliminary reports indicate that two individuals are being sought in connection with the incident.
