Fires set by an arsonist only minutes apart damaged two Cincinnati abortion clinics 10 days after one of the clinics received a threat that the building would be destroyed by a bomb, authorities said. There were no suspects in the early-morning fires at the Women’s Center and the Margaret Sanger Center, and no one was injured. A police officer reported seeing the same person at the scenes of both fires, said Asst. Fire Chief Charles Collini. “They’re checking it out now.” Arson is suspected because both fires were started with incendiary materials, Collini said.
