Reported FIRST in Kansas City here at CSW was the January 23 fire in a historic Raymore church that had been converted into a residence and was for rent.

It turns out an arsonist was responsible for the fire that virtually destroyed the building that was built in the late 1800's.
The CASS COUNTY (MO) DEMOCRAT-MISSOURIAN reports that Raymore police arrested a suspect- 17-year-old Joseph Kalinka and have charged him with torching the church.
