Massachusetts authorities have arrested a woman accused of "intentionally" setting fire to a donation box inside a police department lobby on Sunday.
Theresa Abichaker, 22, of West Roxbury, is charged with three counts of burning a public building, three counts of attempting to burn a public building, vandalizing property and fire negligence.
Abichaker was apparently a passenger in a vehicle that had been involved in a crash on Sunday, and a Westborough police officer gave her a courtesy ride to the department after that vehicle was towed.
