Suspect Arrested in Firebombing of Texas State Senator’s Office

HeadlineMar 22, 2012

In Texas, a suspect has been arrested in the firebombing of the office of a Democratic state senator known for backing Planned Parenthood and other progressive causes. Wendy Davis’ Fort Worth office was briefly set on fire earlier this week when Molotov cocktails were thrown inside. The attack came one week after Texas banned Planned Parenthood clinics from enrolling in a program extending Medicaid coverage for low-income women.
