A historic Catholic church near downtown St. Louis was targeted early
Thursday by a suspected arsonist — the seventh apparent attack on a
house of worship in two weeks, local authorities said.
Firefighters rushed to the Shrine of St. Joseph just after 1:30 a.m. CT.
The front doors of the rectory had been deliberately burned with a
small amount of accelerant, the St. Louis Fire Department said in a news
release. The rectory was empty at the time and there were no reported
injuries.
