Authorities are investigating after what appears to be a Molotov cocktail was thrown at a Lincoln home.

Officers responded Tuesday afternoon to the home in the 6500 block of Baldwin Ave.

A 44-year-old woman reported she had found a window at the home broken and burn marks around it. A broken bottle with burn marks was found below the window, police said.

While the investigation continues, police said they do not believe this was a hate crime. It’s unclear whether this incident is connected to other reports of Molotov cocktails that were thrown at schools or police cruisers.

Estimated damage to the home is $150.
