Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I kitea e te pirihimana he tuhi i runga i te huarahi o te whare karakia e pa ana ki nga pupuhi o te whare karakia o Christchurch i Aotearoa, e arahi ana ki a ratou ki te whakaaro ko te ahi he whakaeke kaiwhakatuma. Neke atu i te kotahi marama, kāore he tangata i mōhiotia. Na, i te 27 o Aperira,
I uru a John T. Earnest ki te whare karakia tata o Chabad o Poway ka whakatuwhera i te pupuhi, ka mate tetahi, ka whara i etahi atu tokotoru. I whakaaetia e Earnest he kawenga mō te tahunga ahi o te whare karakia i runga ipurangi. Kāore he tangata i whara i te ahi, ā, i tineia i mua i te nui o te kino.
