The ATF is investigating whether a fire yesterday at the site of the construction of a new mosque in Murfreesboro, TN, was intentionally set.

Late Update: The local sheriff is treating it as an arson. While the ATF hasn’t ruled it an arson yet, an ATF spokesperson tells CBS News that gasoline was poured over construction equipment to start the fire.
