On the night of September 27, the Ministry of Emergency Situations received a message about the fire of cars in one of the parking lots of Minsk. Rescuers eliminated the fire, but the fire managed to destroy three cars, another seven received significant thermal damage.

An investigative team worked at the scene. Investigators, GKSE specialists, employees of the rescue department examined the territory and cars, recorded a trace picture, and expert studies were appointed.

“Initial investigative actions showed that the fire occurred from a source, which indicates arson,” the IC said.

A 19-year-old resident of Minsk was detained in a parked foreign car. It was established that the young man, being in a state of strong alcoholic intoxication, on the way home from the bar damaged property in the trolleybus, then went to the parking lot and smashed several CCTV cameras on a nearby house. In the car, where the Minsk man was subsequently detained, he found a faulty trunk lock and a canister of gasoline. Dousing several cars with flammable liquid, the suspect set them on fire.

According to the UK, the preliminary amount of damage exceeded 90 thousand rubles.

In relation to the defendant, a criminal case was initiated under Part 3 of Article 218 (deliberate destruction and damage to property committed in a generally dangerous way and causing damage in an especially large amount) of the Criminal Code. The final legal assessment of the actions of the young man will be given at the end of the investigation.
