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.
