Justice Department probing N.J. town over mosque denial as another town settlesThe U.S. Department of Justice has opened an investigation on a New Jersey city's rejection of a planned mosque, a spokesman confirmed on Tuesday. The U.S. Attorney's office in New Jersey, in conjunction with members of the department's civil rights headquarters in Washington, D.C., is examining whether officials in Bayonne, New Jersey, properly denied plans to build a mosque, according to Matthew Reilly, a spokesman for the New Jersey office. The Bayonne Muslims, the group seeking to construct the mosque, filed a federal lawsuit against the city last week.
