Red Cadillac With Florida License Plates (And Trump Stickers) Explodes On Carroll Street In Carroll Gardens

At about 11:30pm on Friday night, a red Cadillac with Florida license plates burst into flames after several explosions could be heard. The car was parked on Carroll Street between Court and Smith Streets next to Carroll Park in Carroll Gardens.
Two firetrucks and several police cars arrived at the scene shortly after local residents called 911.
Luckily, it appears that no one was hurt.
The vehicle was still parked in the same spot on Saturday at mid-day. It attracted quite a bit of attention from passersby, who stopped to wonder what could have caused the explosion.

As we took the photos above at about 1 pm, someone remarked that three "Trump: Keep America Great" stickers affixed to the back window of the car had somehow remained intact through the explosion and the fire, though the window and the interior had been mostly destroyed.
"It just shows how hard it is to get rid of the guy", he mused.

Did you witness last night's explosion? We would love to get some details of what happened.
