Description
A convenience store on Broadway in Reservoir has been ram-raided and firebombed, with the arsonist unable to breach security grills before setting fire to a stolen Toyota. The attack occurred just seven weeks after another firebombing targeted a supermarket across the same street, raising concerns about ongoing tobacco wars in Melbourne despite the recent arrest of suspected kingpin Kazem Hamad by Iraqi police. The shop is believed to sell tobacco, and authorities are investigating whether the two attacks are connected.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
