I am sure this was probably posted before, but I don't they noticed the charges and how offensive and racist they were. I am quite upset that this racist hate monger was charged with the same crimes he would have been charged with, if he had set a trash can on fire.

A routine fire drill at Hightstown High School in Mercer County turned terrifying for one student.

As students gathered outside on school grounds one morning last week, someone came up behind a 16-year-old junior, a member of the Sikh faith, and allegedly set the boy's turban on fire.

An 18-year-old Hightstown senior, Garrett Green, was arrested hours later and charged with arson and criminal mischief, said Ben Miller, an investigator with the Hightstown Police Department.
