[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Sumi] In Incheon, a car parked at an apartment was damaged after being hit by a brick presumed to have been thrown by someone, prompting the police to launch an investigation.

According to the Incheon Western Police Station on the 11th, at around 7:40 PM the previous day, a Mercedes-Benz vehicle parked in the ground-level parking lot of an apartment in Geomam-dong, Seo-gu, Incheon, was hit by a falling brick, damaging the rear door window and handle.

At the time, an apartment resident witnessed a red brick falling onto the vehicle and informed the car owner about the damage. After receiving the victim's report, the police arrived at the scene and reviewed the apartment's CCTV footage, which suggested that the brick fell from between the 9th and 12th floors of the 18-story apartment building.

Additionally, the CCTV footage showed a hand reaching out from a window of the apartment stairwell at the time the brick fell. The police are pursuing suspects, considering the possibility that the brick was deliberately thrown.

The owner of the damaged Mercedes-Benz shared the incident on the online community BobaeDream to raise awareness. He said, "I received a call that my car was hit by a brick, and I thought it wouldn't be serious, but when I went to check, the area behind the driver's seat was smashed." He added, "Even if it’s just my car that was damaged, if a person had been hit, it could have been a fatal accident."

Netizens responded with comments such as "Absolutely do not let this go," "It definitely needs to be publicized," "If a pedestrian had been hit, they could have died on the spot," and "This is really outrageous."
