White supremacist's church burns down in North Dakota
23 March 2017 US & Canada
A fire that destroyed a church owned by a well-known white supremacist in a small US town is under investigation.
The place of worship in Nome, North Dakota, was recently purchased by Craig Cobb, who tried to set up a whites-only enclave in another part of the state.
The blaze was reported on Wednesday afternoon and the structure was razed by the time fire crews arrived after nearly an hour.
Cobb said the fire at the former Zion Lutheran church was "100% arson".
He told WDAY-TV, a Fargo-based news station, that he is offering a reward of $2,000 (£1,600) to anyone with any information related to the incident, which he said was a direct attack on his life.
