Altar Boy Held After Fire Destroys Church

In Springfield Massachusetts a 14 year old altar boy was held on delinquency by reason of arson after admitting to starting a fire that destroyed Our Lady of Rosary Catholic Church. He told police of an urge and a funny feeling to set fires and admitted lighting a blaze in the altar boys room on the second floor. He tossed three cassocks onto a cardboard box and set it on fire. The youth has prior trouble for playing with matches and his identity is withheld due to age.
