FBI Agents re-emphasizing the seriousness of a possible hate crime at a Jacksonville mosque.
The FBI is looking at this case as a possible hate crime, and now they're analyzing it as a possible act of domestic terrorism.
"It was a dangerous device, and had anybody been around it they could have been seriously injured or killed," says Special Agent James Casey. "We want to sort of emphasize the seriousness of the thing and not let people believe that this was just a match and a little bit of gasoline that was spread around."
Casey says surveillance video from the Islamic Center shows the arsonist carrying gasoline and the pipe bomb. When the explosive went off, parts of it were found 100 feet away on 9A.
Despite receiving few phone calls from the public, investigators are following up on leads. Call CrimeStoppers with any information.
