A small North Carolina town saw two churches set on fire Friday night.
The fires took place near Casar, a town of about 300 people located northwest of Charlotte.
According to a Facebook post from the Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office, the fires were set between 9:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.
Tabernacle Baptist Church and Calvary’s Cross Baptist Church were both targeted, the post said.
“Fortunately, both fires were spotted by citizens who quickly put the fire out before significant damage occurred. These events are still under investigation,” the post said.
