A mosque in Joplin, Missouri, has burnt to the ground after suffering its second fire in just over a month. The Islamic Center of Joplin was set ablaze in the early hours of Monday morning. Firefighters were unable to contain the fire in time, leaving the mosque completely destroyed. The mosque had already been damaged on July 4 when an arsonist was videotaped throwing an ignited object onto its roof. The arsonist was never apprehended. The FBI is joining local police in investigating the latest fire.
