Woman identified by sources as Brooklyn lawyer accused of tossing Molotov cocktail at NYPD cruiser used Bud Light bottle for incendiary device

One of the two Brooklyn lawyers accused trying to torch an NYPD cruiser in Brooklyn used a Bud Light bottle stuffed with a rag as a Molotov cocktail, according to a photo obtained Sunday by the Daily News.

Urooj Rahman, 31, was snapped in a picture holding a black and white striped scarf close to her face with one hand and the potentially fiery bottle with another as she prepared to toss it out of the passenger-side window of a van.

Rahman and Colinford Mattis, 32, a corporate lawyer and member of Community Board 5 in East New York, were charged with the attempted attack Saturday night on an empty police cruiser parked outside the 88th Precinct station house in Fort Greene.

I knew bud light was horrible beer but, I didn’t know it could also be used to cause fires too. Who would have thunk it?

Not the smartest are they?
This is what a liberal arts education buys you!
Stupidity and anger, unless of course they run for the government, then they will fit right in with other nuts!

Fewer calories makes the bottle lighter and more easily thrown.

Did she understand that "Light" meant fewer calories and not light on fire?

She should have used a Corona and then it would be blamed on the virus.

It's obvious either didn't get into law school because they were even of average intelligence. So many of us knew many of the police vehicles were staged and were being surveilled for garbage like this to vandalize and then get caught. You can see the picture of her holding the lit cocktail right before she tossed it was aimed right at the police vehicle.
