Police Hunt for Ex-Boyfriend Who Set Woman’s Home on Fire Twice

The woman’s house on Flamboyant Street was deliberately set on fire twice, first on Tuesday night and again early Wednesday morning, in what police suspect is a case of domestic-related arson.

According to the homeowner, the incident stems from a recent breakup between her daughter and the accused. The woman said the man “took it hard” and returned to their home around 10:00 p.m. Tuesday night, where he reportedly turned on all the stove burners and set the couch on fire. The family managed to extinguish the blaze before it spread.

However, the man allegedly returned again around 4:00 Wednesday morning. This time, he lit a curtain on fire through an open window from outside the house. The fire was again put out, but not before causing damage to the interior.

Police have been notified and are currently searching for the suspect.
