Authorities to look into cause of fire because its a place of worship and 'what’s going on in our nation right now.'
An investigation has been launched after a fire broke out at a mosque in New Haven, Connecticut, which is currently under construction.
No one was injured during the fire, including one man who was seen at the entrance as the blaze broke out. The flames were brought under control after around one hour of fire-fighting. Members of the local Muslim community gathered outside the place of worship as the fire broke out. “I feel shocked and sorry. We were planning to come and have dinner tonight over here," Telat Bozan, of West Haven, told NBC Connecticut. “Everyone was hoping when it was being finished, want to see how it looked, excited. It was very nice for the community.”
"It’s like another home, I grew up here,” Yasin Uzun, who attends the New Haven mosque, told the station. “It took so long for them to build, and now this happens and they’re going to have to start over.”
