A spectacular fire led the collapse of a church in Wilmington, Delaware Wednesday night. According to local news reports, fire marshals are currently investigating the cause of the fire at the New Jerusalem Missionary Baptist Church. Tonight’s fire, which destroyed the entire building, in addition to damaging nearby homes, is the second fire to be reported at the church in the last two weeks.
“I can’t fathom two fires in two weeks,” New Jerusalem pastor Eugene Brocks told NBC affiliate channel 10 in Philadelphia. “This is unbelievable.”
A news drone captured footage of the fire as the church roof collapsed.
Somebody’s ass needs to be in jail for setting this fire.
Dear Josh,
Do you even read your posts before you publish them? The first sentence of this article is incomprehensible. No wonder anyone who works at TPM doesn’t give a shit about the quality of his or her writing.
Remarkably, the first sentence of the first link in the TPM article is equally incomprehensible – not TPM’s fault there:
Context, please. Is this a predominantly African-American church? A quick scan on Facebook indicates that this may well be the case, but it would be helpful for TPM to include as much info as possible. This is just a fragment of a story that could have waited a little longer to be posted.
It’s a war on Christmas!
Get your AR-15s ready folks.
