A suspect has been taken into custody in connection with fires at three historically black Louisiana churches in 10 days, a law enforcement official familiar with the investigation and a local elected official told CNN on Wednesday night.
Meanwhile, authorities said they will announce significant updates in the case at a news conference Thursday at 10 a.m. CT at the St. Landry Parish Sheriff Public Safety Complex in Opelousas.

Pastor knew it was dangerous, but after Louisiana fires, he felt he had no choice but to sleep in his church
Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards will attend the news conference, his office said.
St. Mary Baptist Church in Port Barre burned on March 26, followed by Greater Union Baptist Church in Opelousas on April 2 and two days later, Mount Pleasant Baptist Church in the same town.

well, hopefully they have the right person and that puts a stop to this terror spree.

I believe you mean "oh no another lone wolf independent operative with no connection to any larger cause in the slightest".
