A posting on the group’s Web site said the “attack” targeted sport utility vehicles in a fight “to remove the profit motive from the killing of the natural environment.”
The vehicles were torched Wednesday at a dealership in Girard, FBI Special Agent Bob Rudge said. Rudge said the communique appeared authentic because it included information not made public.
