Michigan woman charged with arson after video shows car fire exploding in her face
Fox 2 Detroit ^ | 7/24/2020 | Staff

The Macomb County Prosecutor's Office announced Friday that a Fraser woman has been charged with setting a car on fire after video shows her apparently filling the SUV with gasoline and then lighting it, only to have it explode in her face.

Sydney Parham, 26, was arrested on arson charges after police said she set the car on fire on Wednesday.

Video in Macomb County shows a woman filling a car with what looks like gasoline and then lighting with a stick lighter before it explodes in her face.

The fire department and deputies were called to the San Remo Apartments on Union Lake Road for a car fire on Wednesday around 8 a.m.

Video shot from across the parking lot shows a woman, identified by deputies as Parham, filling the back seat with what looks like gasoline, reaching in to ignite it with what looks like a stick lighter, and then the fire explodes in her face, sending her backward onto the pavement next to the SUV.

The video was uploaded to YouTube by user ppv_tahoe. The Macomb County Sheriff's office confirmed the video is the same incident that Parham was charged in.

When the fire department got the fire put out, nobody was nearby. After speaking with several witnesses and reviewing the video of the fire being set, deputies arrested Parham for the fire.

Parham has been charged with third-degree arson, a felony, and is currently being held on a $20,000 personal bond. She's due back in court on August 5th.

Any back story? Random arson, or ex-boyfriend’s car? (not in article).

Maybe the car owner told her to put a Mask on.
“Mask? I’ll give YOU a Mask, B**ch!”

I saw in one of the clips from the street rioting, a guy spraying something from an aerosol can INTO an already huge fire. Too bad it didn’t blow up in his face. Them people ain’t too swift, is they?

Too bad she didn’t get permanently disfiguring 3rd degree burns on her face.

I remember when this video hit social media. It was during a peak riot time in the news cycle.

When is that? 10pm or 11pm? It's certainly daily.

I was thinking insurance fraud. She is supremely incompetent. Other than the fact that she almost kilt her arse, she did it in broad daylight, with someone in the apartment across the way taping the whole thing, and didn't think to remove the gas can and other evidence until after she lit the thing off. Sheesh. Jail might be the only place she's safe.

Around the time they were tearing down statues and there was a new country inside Seattle. Around that time is when this video started showing up. But I guess it could have been a coincidence and there was something else going on in her life.

My mom lives just down the road from this.

A few weeks ago, I got into my truck at a hotel. The car parked next to me had all the glass caved in.

Guessing somebody got caught cheating.
