MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- A 15-year-old girl is in custody after she tried to set a Milwaukee Police squad car on fire Saturday night.
"I don’t understand who ever did this I don’t know how they could have set a squad car on fire," said Kimberly Toliver, neighbor.
The incident happened in area of N Long Island Drive and W Custer Avenue in Milwaukee’s north side.
According to the MPD, the officers were responding to a call at a nearby home. When they were inside the house, the suspect attempted to a light the squad car on fire. Neighbors saw smoke coming from the vehicle and called 911.
