Anti-Christian Hate Crime Case Opened After Disturbing Discovery on Church’s Front Lawn
Authorities in Los Angeles have opened up a hate crime investigation after someone set fire to three crosses outside of a church in the San Fernando Valley Thursday morning.
The crosses were on the property of the Sylmar Christian Fellowship Church in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Sylmar.
KTLA-TV reported police were called to the church at around 4:45 a.m. PT Thursday morning about the fires.
A neighbor had already brought a garden hose to the church parking lot and put out the blazes.
Images posted on Twitter of the three crosses showed one of them had fallen after it was torched by an unknown arsonist.
