Rogue Midnight Arsonists Taking Over Park Slope?

This just in at FIPS HQ from reader Kristin:

So this was posted on Brooklynian an few hours ago:"Last night, around 4am, I heard two car alarms go off and then felt heat on my back. A car was completely on fire on 14th street between 6th and 7th avenues. Within minutes a fire truck came and put it out and then left. Then the car caught fire again and a fire truck came back and put it out. This afternoon I saw another car completely burnt out just down the block. My neighbors told me that five fires were set last night between 6th and 7th on 14th street. Does anyone have any information?"

The post as no responses yet. I live on 14th and this was the first I heard about it, but seeing as I live a block away from where these car fires were supposedly set (and my car is parked not far!) I have a selfish reason for wanting to know the scoop, but I'm sure other residents of South Slope would be very interested to know too."

Anyone have scoop? Do we have a rogue arsonist on the loose or all thse burning cars just a verrrry big coinkydink?

UPDATE: Just rec'd the following tip from FIPS reader Katie (as well as these kickass pics): I also live on 14th between 6th and 7th.  When we walked out yesterday morning there were two cars that were completely burned out as well as a bunch of other spots along the sidewalks...from burned trash cans. I called the police precint to see what happened since I couldnt' find anything online and apparently it was arson--some assholes just setting fire to trashcans (and apparently cars). Shitheads. 

Shitheads, indeed. Check this shizzy out:
