"Two suspicious, early-morning fires ripped through a Staten Island convent and chapel — trapping a nun upstairs and forcing her to make a desperate leap from the second floor that broke her back, authorities said.
"The NYPD’s Hate Crimes Task Force is assisting in the investigation of the 5:30 a.m. blaze in the Arrochar section..."
"The fires are the second disturbing incidents in as many months at the private school, which recently constructed a new convent building to house its nuns.
"In August, a week before the new convent was set to open, a group of mischief-making teens broke into the building and trashed it."
