Daphne police have arrested an Evangelist minister for arson.

A fire alarm went off about 10:00 p.m. Tuesday at the Loma Alta Towers. A trash can in the basement of the building was on fire.

Police Chief David Carpenter tells News 5 that Dr. Anis Shorrosh used an accelerant to set the trash can on fire. Police believe he did it in an attempt to burn the building down.

Shorrosh says he is from Nazareth, the hometown of Jesus Christ. He also claims to have preached the gospel in at least 76 countries.

Shorrosh has made himself a target of fanatic Muslims by by questioning the Qur’an. According to a website called Islam-In-Focus, Shorrosh has survived three assassination attempts by fanatic Muslims.

Stands to reason if the man has escaped 3 attempts on his life that maybe jail time would put a damper on his efforts and how people trust him.  I agree, there is A LOT more to this story.  We will just have to wait and see.  If he was not set up, then he is trying to safety.  Just keep the family in your prayers.
