Police: Man doused with gasoline, set on fire in vacant lot

A Memphis man remains in the hospital at the burn unit after police say he was set on fire. Authorities identified two suspects wanted for the crime.

Police say the man suffered injuries to most of his body.

Prior arrests meant Memphis police already had mug shots on file for 26-year-old Robert Glasper and 19-year-old Renard King. Police identified the two Thursday for allegedly being responsible for a horrific crime two weeks ago.

It happened in the 700 block of Glankler Street. A man was doused with gasoline and set on fire in a vacant lot behind an abandoned house.

Neighbor Robert Pearson could not recall the victim's name but remembers his screams.

"He was in the weeds. And I just came home from getting groceries. He was over there hollering, his skin peeling off," said Pearson.

Pearson had no clue who committed the crime, but said the devil himself would not deserve such treatment.

The victim was burned over 60 percent of his body and was initially hospitalized in extremely critical condition.

Arrest warrants have been issued for both Glasper and King charging the pair with one count each of criminal attempt first degree murder.

Anyone with information on where those two men might be should call CrimeStoppers at 901-528-CASH or the Tillman Station precinct at 901-636-3214.

how do I tell my adult married children to be very cautious about black males, even females, especially when they are in groups without sounding racist or prudish?....

I don't know if you can do it in a Politically Correct way - so some might be offended, but reality is a non-Politically Correct thing not something that glosses over the facts. I suppose being "offended" that is preferable to being dead or turned into a vegetable?

I am not sure if there is a "non-black" version or not. But here is the original... The Talk: Non-Black Version...

Yeah. It wasn't that long ago when they were railing against "Bush's" war that they were in the streets shouting "Bring the war home!"

And now, even after the Boston bombing, too many of them are still delighted at vast number of muslim refugees we're importing right now.

Actually, your statistics are wrong: You assume arrests numbers are the same as crime numbers.

The murder rate varies by race, but a lot of other crimes by elites gets hidden under the bushel basket....just look at the Kennedy family.
