MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) — An arrest has been made in last year’s firebombing at the office of a Wisconsin pro-life group.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Madison announced that 29-year-old Hridindu Sankar Roychowdhury of Madison was arrested Tuesday at Boston’s Logan International Airport, where he intended to board a flight to Guatamala.
The firebombing at Wisconsin Family Action took place on Mothers Day, Sunday May 8 last year. The office was empty but there was significant damage. Roychowdhury appeared in federal court in Boston on Tuesday and is in custody pending a Thursday detention hearing.
The criminal complaint states investigators identified Roychowdhury by recognizing his graffiti at a January protest, which led to a match of his DNA with DNA found at the crime scene.
