A car is parked in the garage. The windows look smashed. The windshield was shattered due to a major impact. You can also see some broken pieces of glass.

This is a photo posted on an online community by a car owner saying that he was subjected to ‘indiscriminate brick terrorism’.

Car owner A posted a picture with the title, ‘Yesterday someone broke my car and ran away’ in a community yesterday (the 4th).

According to Mr. A, it happened in Mok-dong, Yangcheon-gu, Seoul around 5 pm on the 3rd. Mr. A said, “There is nothing to be surprised about what kind of lightning bolt this is on a holiday. When you start the engine and drive, the windshield will come off,” said Mr. A. “After hearing about the shopkeeper (nearby), a woman threw a brick at my car and broke the window. It is said that when people gathered from behind, they left the (brick) next to the car and ran away.”

“It is said that another car (the woman’s crime) threw a brick above the front bonnet, and the bonnet and windshield were blown away. They said they went in and messed things up and came out.”

Person A said, “The police also asked about resentment and other things, but they said that the victims had no relation at all, so it might be indiscriminate terrorism that could not control their emotions, such as insanity, anger at life,” he said.

He continued, “At least it’s a car or a convenience store now, but what would have happened if that stone assaulted a passerby or a child… For safety’s sake, such a person should be caught.” Anyone who has seen the car or who has been subjected to unknown terrorism, please report it.”
