Afterward, the same suspects reportedly used another object to smash several windows at the building.<\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\">Shattered glass still covers the ground outside the centre, and boarded-up windows now mark the spot where the attack occurred.
