Shots fired at Florida mosque
MELBOURNE: Shots were fired at a mosque in this Florida city as worshippers celebrated the start of the Muslim holy month of Ramazan, but no injuries or arrests were reported, authorities said Saturday. A member of the Islamic Society of Brevard County stepped outside of the mosque Friday night to use his cell phone when he heard several gunshots, the Melbourne police said. The member, who was not immediately identified, took cover behind a wall as several rounds struck the building’s south side, police said. He then ran inside and told mosque members, who called police. Authorities searched the surrounding area for suspects but found none. The FBI and Joint Terrorism Task Force were helping with the search, police spokeswoman Jill Frederiksen said Saturday. ap

It could have been done by miscreant fed up to the gills with the barbarism being perpetuated and glorified.
Or it could have been done to ensure that sympathy is garnered in a scenario of mounting anger the world over and especially in the USA at the barbaric acts of the Islamofascists!
Who knows?
All one can surmise is that it does not auger well.
One can hope that this does not become a worldwide phenomenon. There has already been a huge blast yesterday in Baghdad.
The world is going crazy!
