Arson suspected at Bill Clinton's birthplace

Arson is suspected in a fire that broke out at former US president Bill Clinton's birthplace early Friday morning, damaging the historical site, police said. "It's pretty logical it was purposely set," J.R. Wilson, the police chief in Hope, Arkansas, told AFP. Clinton -- born in Hope on August 19, 1946 -- served in the Oval Office from 1993 to 2001.
