Recent reports have identified Beth Ezekiel Synagogue as one of the “targets of opportunity” in Monday night's arson spree allegedly perpetrated by three now known persons.
But in a weird twist of fate, as sometimes happens, this target was a failure for the arsonists in two ways.
First, their attempt to start a bush on fire at the historic synagogue failed, extinguishing itself before any damage to real property could be affected.
And secondly, due to a grant from SIIP (Security Infrastructure Improvement Program) that was given to improve security for groups that may be targeted by hate crimes, police ended up with some video that may have been instrumental in identifying those arrested for the crime and the one still being sought.

Mayor Boddy gave this explanation to a local resident when asked about the old Courthouse sale.
Hi Karen
There were differing offers received for the Court House that the prior or present council considered. Heritage preservation and a satisfactory plan for the property were key factors. City staff met and corresponded with Southbridge over several months. After presentations and negotiations in confidence, an acceptable written offer was expected for this property from Southbridge.
The TOM staff had previously decided that they were not interested in this property. When they did express interest, they were told by me that the offer was coming and they were asked to wait for the outcome of that offer and not go public. They chose instead to go public days later and announced a public meeting.
The sale price is based on an estimated fair market value of property less the costs they will invest to remove the jail and walls.
