Unknown assailants threw drove by a residence in west Gilroy and threw three Molotov cocktails at it Wednesday night. The contraptions did not explode and no one was hurt.
Two adult males were inside the home on the 900 block of West Sixth Street at 7:14 p.m. when they heard a noise out front, Sgt. Jim Gillio said. Outside, they found three Molotov cocktails lying in the front yard and called police.
A witness reported that a dark-colored vehicle drove by the house and its occupants attempted to light three of the bombs before throwing them at the residence, Gillio said. However, none of the bombs caught fire.
At this point, police do not know how many people were in the car and have not determined whether the incident was gang-related. Arson investigators are investigating the incident, Gillio said.
