Man's pizza delivery car torched in driveway in brazen attack
An Adelaide pizza delivery driver whose car was torched in his driveway says he has no idea why he was targeted.
The brazen attack, which happened at 2.30am in Seaton, was captured on security vision.
A firebug appears to pour petrol on the car, and seconds later the vehicle erupts into a fireball and the arsonist vanishes into the night.
Driver Shaun Thompson said he was “p***ed off, annoyed, sad … there goes my four-wheel-drive.”
He was asleep when it happened but security cameras recorded the whole thing.
“They’ve been stupid enough to look at the camera, so we’ve got your faces on camera,” Mr Thompson’s housemate Trey said.
Police now have the vision and are trying to determine a motive.
Mr Thompson said he is worried the arsonists could strike again.
“You’re cowards, if you had a problem you should’ve faced me, not my car,” he said.
His housemate Trey said he was “confused” by the attack.

“We’re not bad people, we don’t have bad people in our lives,” he said.
Neighbours are also rattled by the incident.
“Are they gonna come back? What are they gonna do next? Are they gonna come for my cars?,” Kellie McCann said.
