SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — A Waymo vehicle was vandalized and set on fire Saturday night in Chinatown, the San Francisco Fire Department announced. Several Lunar New Year celebrations took place in Chinatown.
The Waymo was surrounded by an unknown amount of people, had graffiti sprayed on the car and had its windows broken, SFFD said. A firework lit inside of the Waymo, causing it the burst into flames.
SFFD posted photos of the damage done to the Waymo (below). At this time, no injuries have been reported.
KRON4 drove by the scene around 11:45 p.m., which has since cleared. SFFD tweeted about the incident at 11:30 p.m., although it is unknown what time the Waymo was vandalized.
Waymo is an autonomous vehicle company that offers services in San Francisco. No other information was immediately available.
This story will be updated as KRON4 learns more.
