Damaged Chinese consulate open for business
The Chinese consulate in San Francisco sustained fire and smoke damage as a result of an arson attack, the consulate said on Thursday, but there were no injuries and the consulate was open for business Thursday. The consulate said video cameras recorded the arsonist Wednesday night, carrying two cans of gasoline from a van parked nearby who then set an embassy gate ablaze. The San Francisco Fire Department said it responded two minutes after the fire was reported and quickly put out the fire. The FBI, which is investigating the arson, said no suspects have been arrested。
