BOCA RATON, Fla. - Jorge Dupre Lachazo was contracted to deliver and help set up new appliances at the home of an elderly woman in Boca Raton, Florida, but police said he beat the 75-year-old woman with a mallet and poured a chemical on her before setting her on fire.
Police found the woman unconscious on her laundry room floor Monday morning, WPTV reported.
She had injuries to her head and burns to most of her body.
Police said Lachazo had worked with another man to deliver the appliances. Once they were hooked up, the other man went outside to make a call as Lachazo showed the woman the new washer and dryer and answered any questions, WPTV reported.
That's when the other man heard screams and ran inside. He found blood near the woman on the laundry room floor, WPEC reported.
The man said "Lachazo was acting very strange" and told his co-worker he had to leave. Then he got into the delivery truck and drove away, WPTV reported.
Police said when they eventually caught Lachazo he was sweaty and shaking like he was nervous. They also said his leg hair was burned and he had ashes on his body.
In examining the scene, police said there was a strong chemical smell in the laundry room and a mallet with blood on it was found on the washing machine, WPTV reported.

Horrible
The other guy did not call police? He would be guilty too.
What in the honest heck? Drugs aside, that right there is demon possession. No other way to explain it.
So glad we’ve legalized pot...
I believe the other guy did call.
bath salts
The poor lady died in the hospital.
Was he smoking pot? I didn’t see that in the story.
The story says he “vaped” marijuana and had used cocaine....
Sounds like “bath salts” to me...some kind of weird version of Florida Man.
I admit it find the guy in the famous picture with the cape and tights less threatening...
Low-set ears.
I missed that, had to go back and look. Cocaine too.
Fixed it.
Diversity is our strength.
Normal-set ears. Elongated forehead.
I’m an older fellow. And I occasionally have delivery people or tradesmen in my home. No problem. I believe most people are good. But I am also discretely armed. Because I also believe in covering all the bases.
Side note: For those who are not into firearms, police-grade pepper spray is nasty stuff. I recommend the Fox brand. It’s available on Amazon.
Reason # 2,394,620 NOT to retire in Flori-DUH.
And we have to listen to Democrats whine that Pres. Trump said that many people coming into our country are criminals. Too bad there is no running total of all the criminal aliens who are caught every year in the USA.
