If this happened during curfew time, then they were right to do it imo. Those who were parked there during a city wide curfew and in light of the mass destruction that was going ,were no doubt looters and people burning shit to the ground. People not involved in criminal activity were in their homes. This was basically a war going on with the lives and properties of innocent people and the police under massive assault .They burned the damn police station down.
No, I disagree. No one was in the vehicles and many where on private property. They still need to be acting in there lawful role and must be pursuing the arrest of a criminal suspect. They should be liable for all damages and charged criminally accordingly.
