FEB 10 2024

On the evening of 10 February 2024, during Lunar New Year weekend, a crowd surrounded an unoccupied Waymo Jaguar I-Pace on Jackson Street, smashed its windows, sprayed it with graffiti and threw a firework inside; the car burned out completely. No one was injured, and it was reported as the most destructive attack on a driverless vehicle in the United States to that point.
