Journalist Charged With Firebombing Police Vehicles

Authorities have arrested four BLM-inspired anarchists for the coordinated firebombings of police vehicles in Little Rock, Arkansas, during this summers’ unrest.

One of the suspects, Renea Baek Goddard, is a journalist for Little Rock’s National Public Radio (NPR) affiliate KUAR. Goddard’s apprehension comes following a months-long federal investigation.

Per the Daily Mail:

After an investigation by the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives lasting several months, authorities alleged Goddard was part of a group that broke into a police compound and then fire bombed a police vehicle.

‘Breaking into a police compound and firebombing a police vehicle with a homemade explosive device is clearly not a peaceful protest,’ U.S. Attorney Cody Hiland said in a statement.

‘Today’s arrests send a message that violence targeted toward law enforcement will not be tolerated.’

Goddard had previously been arrested and charged with obstructing government operations in violation of a local curfew during a BLM protest on June 2 for which she will appear in court in January.
