They need to suspend gasoline sales in DC now!
It’s interesting that she was “allegedly” doused with gasoline. I admire their caution in not rushing to judgment. I guess they’re leaving the door open to the possibility that kerosene could have been used.
Firefight?
“allegedly set on fire”
Right. Allegedly. Coulda been spontaneous combustion...
You can hardly blame the Yutes for her catching on fire.
Spontaneous Human Combustion!
Paging Mulder and Scully....
The use of “allegedly” is getting out of control.
This should be an entertaining week.
Police have not yet identified who the suspect is and no arrests have been made.
Dames get flames ... Snitches get stitches ...

Who runs around with a gas can at night? Or did the fight occur at a local gas station? How is it the main weapon was available an on site?
What passes for news today is flat embarrassing. There are no “who, what, when, where or whys” in this article. Just a headline and useless video.
News is dead. It is dead, Jim.
Someone took that literally.
