A California warehouse worker has been charged by federal authorities in connection with an arson that investigators say caused roughly $500 million in damage; prosecutors allege the suspect filmed an anti-corporate rant at the scene in which he invoked Luigi Mangione, describing the blaze as an act of "anti-capitalist" rage. The incident, reported recently by federal officials and covered in national media, took place at a large distribution facility in California and is being treated as a deliberate, high-cost arson rather than an accident.
