Debunked : SWAT Police Caught Setting Fires In Ferguson [Examining items by flashlight]

This was making its rounds on Twitter and needs to be debunked : The claim in the video is that swat stated a fire in the car by using a flash bang grenade . The video poster also mentions the fire in the window of the advanced Auto parts is just a reflection from across the street . The Advanced Auto Parts is burned to the ground and the video poster belives it the fault of SWAT . The vehicle is not in the photo later of the burnt Auto Parts Store . My conclusion is that it appears to be a El Camino not a car which is like a pickup truck . It has a Flat rear window and the flames are actually a reflection from a explosion across the street .

I've watched this several times including the entire video by the youtuber and honestly, I don't see proof that they threw in something to start a fire. In fact I've seen no video that shows that car burning.

This is good for those who want to portray the thugs in Ferguson who started the looting and fires as innocent peaceful protesters.

What a LOAD of BULLSHIT!
That is REFLECTED LIGHT from the officer's FLASHLIGHT as the beam passes ACROSS the WINDOW GLASS!
