My friend and I want to start a business in the state of Oregon. We want to make and sell fermented sodas. Do fermented sodas (which use a process similar to kombucha) fall under “low acid canned goods”? Can we sell the product we make at home or do we have to use a commercial space to make them?

Unlikely you would prevail against the police on this, as they did not do the damage. If you have insurance, file a claim. If the claim is accepted, your insurance company my go after the police in subrogation if they think there is a case.
