Cross burning at SX-MTSU
A firebomb was thrown at a Middle Tennessee State University fraternity Monday night.
A member of Sigma Chi said flames shot 15 feet into the air after someone set the fraternity's emblem, a concrete cross, on fire.
The cross was scorched but the home wasn't damaged.
Investigators said the suspect poured gasoline on the cross and onto the sidewalk.
School officials said the suspect meant to target the fraternity without hurting anyone.
If a suspect is found, they will be prosecuted, administrators said. If it’s a student, they could face expulsion.
