Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe man accused of setting fire to a Florida mosque will not be released on bond.
St. Lucie County Judge Philip Yacucci orders 32-year–old Joseph Michael Schreiber held without bond Thursday on a charge of second-degree arson with a hate crime enhancement. Yacucci cites Schreiber’s two previous prison stays for theft and said he is a danger to the community and a flight risk.
St. Lucie County sheriff’s deputies arrested Schreiber on Wednesday, saying he set the Sunday night fire at the Islamic Center of Fort Pierce. Orlando nightclub shooter Omar Mateen had occasionally attended the mosque.
