Police Van Torched

This article came in from the San Francisco Chronicle less then an hour ago:

A UC Berkeley campus police van was torched overnight in an incident that authorities said could be linked to the ongoing dispute involving tree-sitters at the Memorial Stadium oak grove.

The van was discovered with burn marks and other damage at abut 6 a.m. today, police said. It was parked on Barrows Lane off Bancroft Way near the campus police station, according to authorities.

Update: I took this picture of the van on my way to class.

I thought the days of burning cars were over, but not so in Berkeley. Details are still developing.
