A federal investigation has been launched into the attempted arson of a ballot box early yesterday morning in Boston.
The fire was started in the ballot box located outside the Boston Public Library in Copley Square.
State U.S. Attorney Andrew Lelling says protecting the integrity of the election process is a top priority of his office.
Lelling is also urging members of the community to remain vigilant and report any suspicious, election-related activity to authorities immediately.
