Man Wearing Garbage Bag Suit Sets Garbage Trucks On Fire In Pompano Beach

A suspect wearing a garbage bag-type suit is still at-large after video caught him setting several garbage trucks on fire at a South Florida business, NBC Miami reported. The incident happened just after 2 p.m. Sunday (October 19) at Waste Pro, which is located at 3101 Northwest 16th Terrace in Pompano Beach, according to Broward Sheriff's Office. Deputies said the man, who was also wearing goggles with his bag suit, torched the gate to enter the business.

Officials released surveillance footage on Friday (October 23), which shows the man carrying what appears to be a gas canister. The suspect then lit a truck on fire at the rear of the property. He made his way back toward the front gate and lit other garbage trucks on fire. "At one point, he opened a door to a building at the business and placed a clear bottle of liquid on the floor before lighting it on fire," according to NBC Miami.

The suspect fled the business in a black sedan, and authorities are still searching for him. They also said the fires caused millions of damages to the trucks and business.
