Third man arrested in firebombing of California Planned Parenthood clinic

The suspects - including a US marine - face up to 31 years for the 2022 molotov cocktail attack on the Costa Mesa clinic

US authorities have arrested a third man for his alleged involvement in the firebombing of a Planned Parenthood clinic in southern California last year.

Xavier Batten, 21, was arrested on federal charges on Friday in Florida, the US attorney's office in Los Angeles said. Officials allege that Batten, along with two other men, including a US marine, conspired to attack a women's health clinic because it had provided reproductive health services.
