The following is an update to the story which was broken by YWN on Wednesday, when the Season’s Kosher Supermarket was vandalized by arsonists.
A $5,000 reward is being offered, (973) 60-ARSON – (973) 602-7766, and video footage has been released from security cameras, in the hope that someone might recognize a suspect, and turn over the information.
The fire was set at the Seasons Kosher Supermarket, located at 68-18 Main Street, over the second days of Pesach. The video footage shows the arsonists on the roof of the building, cutting into the exhaust system, where the fire was set. The in-house sprinkler system extinguished the fire right away, and the fact that the store was closed over Yom Tov, the FDNY was first called after a pedestrian walking past noticed water streaming out from under the store entrance into the street. By that time, there had already been serious water damage to the store which was all prepared for the grand opening.

wow. The chance of these people not getting caught is zero. They are so toast
might help to use the video to take an upclose snapshot of their faces– more people will see that as opposed to long videos where nothing happens.
I hope it wasn’t at the behest of a business rival.
For baalei emunah, the term ‘business rival’ is unfathomable!
The guy in the cap has an obvious injury to his left hand. That should help ID him.
