UNION, S.C. --A South Carolina woman has been accused of trying to kill her husband by setting him on fire while he was asleep.

Local news outlets say a Union County Sheriff's Office report states that 44-year-old Lashawn Stevens Hardy is charged with attempted murder and second-degree arson in the early Saturday attack.

The victim told deputies Hardy poured gasoline on him while he slept before lighting him on fire. He was flown to a Georgia hospital to have second-degree burns on his neck and back treated.

It is unclear whether she has an attorney.
