A man was arrested in New York City on Wednesday night after he tried to enter a cathedral with gas cans, triggering worries about a possible arson attempt in the wake of a destructive fire at the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.
A cathedral security officer stopped the man, who spilled some gasoline on the floor, and alerted counterterrorism officers who were standing nearby. An officer with the NYPD's Critical Response Command took the man, into custody without incident.There were no injuries reported. Sources with knowledge of the investigation told ABC News that the suspect was being treated as an emotionally disturbed person.
When asked if terrorism was a possible motive, Miller said,"It's too early to say that. It's hard to say exactly what his intentions were."
