3 Indicted for Election Night Church Arson
------------------------------------------



In Massachusetts, three white men have been indicted on civil rights
charges for burning a predominantly black church on election night. Law
enforcement officials say the fire was intentionally set in response to
President Obama’s win. The church was nearly finished with an expensive
renovation when it was burned to the ground.
