It's been almost two weeks since somebody set fire to the Islamic Center Mosque in Joplin.

Today,  the FBI and other law enforcement agencies will update reporters on the progress of their investigation during a news conference at the Jasper County Sheriff's office.

Authorities say security footage captured photos of a possible suspect seen running from the center.

In 2008, somebody set fire to a sign at the mosque.  That crime remains unsolved.
