Man Accused Of Setting House On Fire To See Firefighters

Many of us admire firefighters in calendars, but this man reportedly wanted to see them in action! UK man James Brown was accused of setting his own house on fire just to see these public servants at work. In 2023, firefighters were dispatched after Brown called reporting a fire. However, 90 minutes after that fire was extinguished, Brown called in another fire. Officials began to suspect the flames were started intentionally. A background check revealed that Brown had called the fire department 80 times in one year. He eventually pleaded guilty to arson. "You waste the resources of the fire brigade, which could be used for more important matters where lives are in danger. I hope you have learned a lesson," Judge Robert Adams said. (Oddity Central)
