Four Arrested for Hate-Motivated Ambulance Arson

0:00On April 24th, four suspects are in court, facing charges for torching four ambulances from a Jewish volunteer service in North London's Golders Green. Three men and a 17-year-old boy allegedly started the fire in the early hours of March 23rd, with one waiting in a getaway car. The blaze got intense quick, exploding gas canisters inside the vehicles and causing about 1 million pounds in damage. Flames spread to nearby flats and a synagogue, putting lives at risk. This hits hard for Huzola, the community-run ambulance group that serves the area. Prosecutors call it a targeted hate attack on the Jewish community, destroying fully-stocked emergency rigs without any excuse. The accused, Hamza Itbal, 20, Rayhan Khan, 19, Judex Atshachi, 18, and the unnamed teen-faced criminal damage charges for wrecking. Property worth over 5,000 pounds each. They're all remanded in custody, with police set for August 28th and a trial starting January 27th next year.
