The suspect wanted for firebombing an off-campus rowhome where four Temple University students live is now in custody, according to the university.
"Hearing that it was intentional, we were all kind of like ‘oh,’ it brought a different element to it for sure," said Annie Elliott, a senior Advertising major. "We’ve all kind of been on edge anyway recently."
On the day of the arson, students tell FOX 29 they did not receive a notification from the university. Temple’s Vice President of Public Safety Dr. Jennifer Griffin put out an announcement after the arrest on Monday. "We are immensely grateful for the diligent and persistent efforts of our TUPD detectives and police officers and the collaboration and teamwork with Philadelphia police and ATF. Their tireless efforts truly made all the difference," the statement read.A neighbor who asked to remain anonymous says the home the man leaves from in the video is currently vacant.
