Two Teens Charged in Firebombings at Temple
From Times Wire Reports
Two 17-year-olds have been accused in firebombing attacks at a Hindu temple.
Paul Laird and Nathaniel Conner have been charged with second-degree arson and criminal possession of a weapon in the attacks on the Clayton temple.
Temple officials initially wondered whether the attacks were done by people who thought they were firebombing a Muslim mosque. Police looked into that possibility but found that the February attacks apparently stemmed from boredom.
