Dennis Petillo, 24, of Los Angeles was arrested and booked for investigation of attempted murder after setting a 67-year-old homeless woman on fire as she was sleeping on a bus bench. He is being held on $500,000 bail.
Cops say Petillo spotted the woman sleeping on the bench around 1 a.m. when he poured some type of flammable liquid on her before striking a match and setting her ablaze, said a witness.
The woman lived and is listed in critical condition in the burn unit at a local hospital.
Last week, a 55-year-old man was set on fire as he slept outside a doughnut shop in southern Los Angeles County. No one has been arrested in that crime, or have they?

almost 2013 and still fighting over black & whites, c´mon.
Shane Scumtrell,
Whites such as yourself are coward faggots who hide behind computer screens contemplating how pathetic your life is and realizing that your BLACK president is a reality that you cannot stop. KIll yourself and do the world a favor since we all know that's how scum trash such as yourself deals with adversity, please just don't kill 26 innocent people like your white compadre did a few weeks ago first. FU and I'd say it directly to your face while spitting on you. F your mother for having you the bitch a hoe and cunt for that move.
