Northern Colorado Masjid Attacked by Gunfire

An excerpt from an article from The Tribune of northern Colorado:

Abu Faraj of Greeley was concerned Thursday when he discovered that the mosque he oversees had been shot at three times sometime during the day.

Faraj, who said he is the head of the community at the Islamic Center of Greeley Mosque, 1600 8th Ave., said this is not the first time something like this has happened there.

A mosque is a place of worship for people of the Islamic faith.

Faraj said it appears as though the shots came from a BB gun or a .22-caliber automatic weapon that had been fired from a distance. Three holes impacted the window, which cracked in several places but did not shatter.
