EDITOR'S NOTE: This item was taken from our sister site at: dailyinsurer.blogspot.com)Officials from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) are working with other agencies on an arson investigation at the Wasilla, Alaska Bible Church after a costly fire gutted parts of the building last Friday night.
The ATF is now the fifth agency to join in the investigation at Gov. Sarah Palin's church in Wasilla, along with the Central Mat-Su Fire Department, Anchorage Fire Department, Wasilla Police Department and the State Fire Marshals Office.
An on-site investigation discovered that an ignitable accelerant had been poured on and around the the Wasilla Bible Church, including at its main entrance, according to the ATF.
The blaze was set while a small group, including two children, were inside the church, but no one was injured.
Palin, who was recently in Georgia to campaign for re-elected Sen. Saxby Chambliss, said she hoped her membership in the church was not a factor in the arson.
