Then, on Aug. 13, the suspect allegedly returned to The Broadwalk Restaurant and threw a Molotov cocktail, also made with a glass Bud Light bottle, at the back of the business. It was not immediately clear what damages resulted.
Police said video surveillance, Moy’s cellular device and license plate data, and motis operandi gave them probable cause to arrest him.
Additionally, the report said "it should be noted that an additional Molotov Cocktail was thrown at the front of a residence approximately one block away from the registered suspect’s address." Moy is not facing charges in that incident.
