Also, according to a statement from the anti-abortion organization Wisconsin Family Action, text was left on the office walls: “If abortions aren’t safe, they won’t be.” According to the organization, a “left-wing anarchist group” is behind the arson.
Police say a Molotov cocktail was thrown at the building, but it did not catch fire. She says it seems that then, in response to that failed attack, a fire broke out. The police said the fire service was able to quickly put out the fire. Unlike Wisconsin Family Action, it has not identified any suspects yet and said there were no injuries in the crash.
The arson comes just days after a draft ruling was leaked to the US Supreme Court. This showed that the court wanted to reverse the landmark Roe vs. Wade decision of 1973. This ruling guarantees the constitutional right to abortion in the United States.
