Arson is a pretty terrible crime no matter the situation. But in certain instances, arson can be about as indefensible as any crime.
Two vans used for disabled people were destroyed by fire Wednesday in Marshfield, Mass., according to Wicked Local. The vans belonged to Road to Responsibility, whose CEO believes someone intentionally set fire to the vans.
“We have every reason to believe this was arson,” Road to Responsibility CEO Chris White said, via Wicked Local. White, who’s working with Marshfield police to discover what happened, added that surveillance footage is being looked at to help determine a suspect.
Road to Responsibility is an organization that specializes in finding work for disabled citizens. The vans, which were wheelchair-accessible, reportedly will cost the organization $80,000 to replace.
“They were the vans we used to get some of our most disabled individuals out into the community,” White said, via Wicked Local. “So this will set us back in that effort.”
A third van reportedly was near the fires, but firefighters prevented it from catching fire as well.
