Heh, that happened when I was on our small towns vollie fire department. Got to a recently divorced fellas home that was on fire.....he was outside sitting on the hood of his car....with all of his rifles and pistols alongside of him! He didn't know how the fire started.
Okay. Judging by the headline of the linked article and the looks of the dude they arrested this has to be in the Top Ten Florida stories of the year.
ReplyDeleteSay what you want about California but at least our psych-case arsonists all have advanced college degrees.
Must have starred in the movie Deliverance
