Arson charges are filed against a Minneapolis man in one of two mosque attacks earlier this week.

Jackie Rahm Little is facing second-degree arson charges in connection with the fire Monday at Mercy Islamic Center.

Investigators say surveillance video shows Little entering the building with a gas can, which was later found near a fire on the top floor of the building.

They also say they've got him on video at a nearby gas station.

Police are still investigating an earlier fire at another mosque the day before. No charges yet in that one.

At last check, Little was not in custody.
