After it was extinguished, authorities allegedly found a pile of clothing in the middle of the room that apparently had been set on fire.
Upper Darby Police tweeted asking for information on their "firebug."
If you get evicted from your house/apartment it is NOT OKAY to go back and light it on fire... Also, you prob don't want to call the owner after to brag about it....
