A man who allegedly attempted to burn down a church with Molotov cocktails after it planned to hold a series of drag show events has been charged with federal crimes.
The incident occurred on March 25 when the 20-year-old suspect involved in the attack -- Aimenn D. Penny of Alliance, Ohio -- threw Molotov cocktails at the Community Church of Chesterland in Chesterland, Ohio, in an attempt to burn the church to the ground after learning the church was holding multiple drag show events the following weekend, according to a statement from the Department of Justice.
Following the attack, the Cleveland Field Office of the FBI gathered information that Penny was part of a White Lives Matter group that espouses racist, pro-Nazi and homophobic views and that at a March 11 drag queen event in Wadsworth, Ohio - just two weeks prior to the Molotov cocktail attack on the Chesterfield Church -- Penny joined members of the group who showed up carrying flags with swastikas and yelling homophobic slurs, prosecutors said.
