In Lviv, on the night of 15-16 September, a coffee shop owned by Ukrainian Armed Forces serviceman Luka Karpiuk was attacked. The attacker smashed shop windows, furniture and crockery inside the premises, causing considerable damage to the establishment. He has already been detained by law enforcement.
This was reported by Censor.NET.
The owner of the cafe, Luka Karpiuk, told Suspilne that he did not know the suspect. The cafe is already counting the losses.
"Superficially, we estimate that it is at least half a million hryvnias. This is just the cost of the external glass structures. All the crockery, part of the equipment, inventory, and some interior elements were also damaged. The amount is considerable," said the owner of the restaurant.
According to Karpiuk, his cafe actively helps the Ukrainian army. He hopes that this case is not a targeted act of revenge for supporting the Ukrainian military.
Police detain the attacker
