Video at the scene showed several dozen people outside and the sound of drums being played in the background. Smoke could be seen through a glass window of the building after the red flash that looked to be coming from inside. The spokesperson said the group "caused extensive damage" to the building and a DPS vehicle parked in front of the building. Atlanta firefighters were also on the scene following reports that part of the building was set on fire by fireworks that were thrown into one of the windows. DPS personnel at the scene were able to put out the fire. Kimberly Krautter, who recorded video of the fire said "only about three or four people" looked to be trying to vandalize the building.
