FBI: House fires may be eco-terrorism
Dozen homes priced at more than $400,000 are destroyed

INDIAN HEAD, Maryland (AP) -- More than a dozen expensive homes under construction were burned down early Monday in a suburban Washington housing development that had been criticized by environmentalists because it is next to a nature preserve, officials said.

An FBI agent said the fires may have been set by environmental extremists.

A dozen homes were destroyed and 29 others damaged near the state's Mattawoman Natural Environment Area. No injuries were reported. The damage was estimated at at least $10 million.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility.

Faron Taylor, a deputy state fire marshal, said investigators believe fires were set in at least four of the homes, which were priced at $400,000 to $500,000. Taylor refused to say what led investigators to conclude it was arson.

"At this point, our knowledge of the methodology is shared by us and the perpetrator, and we don't want to share that with anyone else," Taylor said.

A Sierra Club report had called the development "quintessential sprawl" because it is far from existing infrastructure and "threatens a fragile wetland and important historical sites near the Chesapeake Bay."

After the fires, the Sierra Club issued a statement saying it "strongly condemns all acts of violence in the name of the environment."

FBI spokesman Barry Maddox said FBI agents were on the scene and would investigate whether the fires were an act of ecoterrorism.

"Anything and everything will be considered, but we're not labeling this anything other than suspicious fires," Maddox said.

The blazes were reported before 5 a.m., drawing firefighters from four counties to the subdivision about 25 miles south of the nation's capital. The houses, on lots of about a quarter-acre each, were spread across a 10-acre area, Taylor said.

"This was a very, very affluent neighborhood under construction," Taylor said.

Taylor said the fire would be investigated by agents from the Maryland fire marshal's office and the federal Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, which is routinely brought in to help investigate large fires.

Yep. The assholes who destroyed that property are dumbasses. But, what do you expect from shallow selfish idiots who can't see beyond their very little narrow scope.

I'm not disputing the fact that Greenpeace could be considered extreme in many of their actions. I was laughing at the fact that Midnyte made a comment about how others are dipshits for not seeing another person's perspective.

A single FBI agent makes a statement, a pretty non-binding one, and you are ready to break out the Witch-Hunt kits. You all have "Jump to Conclusions" mats, don't you.

Thank God those fires did not spread to the Magnolia Groves. That would have been tragic.

Really? Who has jumped to conclusions? No matter who did it, I find them assholes and petty and unable to look past their shallow selfish little ambitions.

The number of homes and the distance between the homes prompted speculation that the fires might have been intentionally set as an act of ecoterrorism.
Yeah. Just random acts of nature I'm sure. God is pissed!
