New York Firebombing Suspect Is Arrested - ABC News: A New York man suspected of five New York City fire bombings was arrested today and charged with a hate crime.
Ray Lazier Lengend, 40, was charged with one count of arson as a hate crime and four counts of arson in connection with the Sunday attacks that targeted an Islamic center, a Hindu temple, a bodega and two private homes.
Lengend was arrested by cops who staked out a vehicle overnight awaiting the return of the vehicle's owner.
According to law enforcement officials, Lengend made statements that appear to implicate him in at least some of the bombings, but stopped short of a confession in the first rounds of interrogation.
