A Paw Paw man has been sentenced to five years in prison after setting fire to a Planned Parenthood clinic.

It happened at the Kalamazoo clinic in July of last year.

The suspect, Joshua Brereton, has also been ordered to serve two years of supervised released and to pay 32 thousand dollars in restitution.

The U.S. Attorney’s office says he purchased tiki torch fuel, a fire starter log, a utility lighter and a hat at the Paw Paw Walmart on July 31st last year.

He reportedly set fire to the bushes and threw a lit fire starter onto Planned Parenthood’s roof.

Brereton had previously posted videos to social media in which he referred to abortion as genocide.

He pleaded guilty to arson in October.
