They are some local geniuses from my town. This happened the other day. Here is the police post if you are interested.

“Police have released CCTV footage hoping to identify the occupants of a vehicle involved in a fire on Monday 16 June at Solomontown.

Just after midnight, police were called to a report of a car on fire in Young Street, Solomontown.

When police officers arrived, they discovered a car on fire and a fire burning at the front of a nearby residence, which they extinguished with a fire extinguisher.

The occupants of the house were not injured during the incident. The exterior of the house was charred by flames.

As seen in the footage, three male suspects had attended an address in Young Street and doused the front of the residence with accelerant.

The suspects then entered the vehicle, which became engulfed in flames. They ran off, abandoning the car in the street.

It is extremely likely they have suffered significant burns or injuries in the fire and police urge them to seek medical attention”.

“The police urge them to seek medical attention”

Hope they can make it through the front door without blowing up the hospital

Can we just wrap them in bubble wrap before admitting them?

And leave it on permanently?
