FBI investigates arson at Lebanon pregnancy center

(continued from front page)

The building was unoccupied at the time.
The Albany, Sweet Home, Brownsville and Scio fire departments also assisted. One firefighter received a leg injury while battling the blaze and was transported to Lebanon Community Hospital for treatment.
The Pregnancy Alternatives Center provides free information, baby items and medical services to pregnant women.
FBI and Lebanon Police are investigating potential motives, including whether the arsonist mistakenly thought that the clinic provides abortion services, or whether the clinic was hit because it counsels against abortion.
Anyone with information is asked to phone the FBI in Eugene at 541-343-5222 during normal business hours, the FBI in Portland at 503-224-4181 at any time of day, or the Lebanon Police Department at 541-258-4319.
