Garbage cans behind Stories set on fire

Keep an eye on your cans.

We received the following message awhile back (apologies for it getting lost in cyber space for so long) from Stories Comics. The incident occurred around February 13th.

We just experienced an act of what appears to be pyro-vandalism, one of our green cans is completely melted and seemingly set on fire last night. Along with a lump of melted plastic where our trash can used to be, it scorched off the paint on our back wall. When talking to the landlord about it, he mentioned that one of the houses we share an alley with experienced something similar earlier this month. Our entire store could have gone up in flames, and we’re lucky it didn’t!
