Authorities say a suspect was arrested Tuesday in a string of fires that were deliberately set across Jackson, Mississippi that left two historically Black churches damaged — including one that was completely destroyed.
Hinds County Sheriff’s Office deputies say the arson suspect, Delvin McLaurin, was arrested after seven fires were intentionally set early Tuesday morning in the area of Jackson State University, a historically Black public university.
A spokesperson for the Jackson Police Department said he is being charged with felony malicious mischief. He is being questioned by the FBI and may face additional charges.
