Home Fire Inspired By Movie, Beers, Man Says

From AP:

CORDELE, Ga. – A Georgia man facing arson charges for burning his own home is blaming nine or 10 beers, and a disaster movie.

Charles Adams told Crisp County authorities he had been drinking while watching the movie “Day After Tomorrow.”

Adams allegedly told deputies that after watching the special-effects extravaganza depicting deadly natural disasters caused by global warming, he decided to set fire to pillows on his bed.

The flames destroyed his doublewide mobile home.

And really, did they need to state that this man lived in a mobile home? Most people would have been able to guess that, just by reading the story.
