Abortion Clinic Suffers Damage in Firebombing
A container of flammable liquid was hurled through a window of a North Hollywood abortion clinic Friday, setting off a small fire.
The Family Planning Associates Medical Group clinic in the 12900 block of Victory Boulevard was the target of the 3:48 a.m. attack, authorities said.
The fire caused $500 damage to the building and $500 to its contents, the Los Angeles City Fire Department said. No injuries were reported. No arrests were made, and clinic operators declined to discuss the incident.
Jim Adamcik, assistant special agent in charge of the Los Angeles division of the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, said investigators from his agency are heading the inquiry, aided by the FBI, the Los Angeles Police Department’s Criminal Conspiracy Division and the Los Angeles City Fire Department’s arson unit.
