PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) – Police are trying to figure out who threw a pair of Molotov cocktails at a two-story, off-campus apartment building where an employee of a campus Jewish organization lives.
No one was injured in the attack, which happened at about 1:15 a.m. Saturday. No arrests have been made.
Police said one of the devices hit the outside of the building and started a small fire.
A second landed inside the building, but failed to ignite. Investigators seized the second device.
School officials said the building housed an employee of Brown/Rhode Island School of Design Hillel who worked with the Jewish Agency, which sends Israeli emissaries around the world to conduct educational, religious, and cultural programs.
Investigators are not speculating on a possible motive.
