Feds arrest man in firebombing of an anti-abortion group using DNA from a partly eaten burrito

Hridindu Sankar Roychowdhury was arrested Tuesday in Boston and charged in connection with the firebombing of the office of Wisconsin Family Action in Madison on May 8.
If abortions arent safe then you arent either," someone had written on the wall of the building in graffiti during the attack, which took place just days after Politico broke the news that the Supreme Court had the votes to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Authorities were able to pull DNA off of a Mason jar they found inside, as well as from the window glass and on a lighter found at the scene, a Dane County deputy who serves on a FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force wrote in an affidavit.

It's one thing to disagree on abortion.
It's simply WRONG to commit violence either on one side or another.
Or condone it.

Was it in the past week or so? Then wouldn't it be much too soon for enough evidence to warrant an arrest and be charged?
