A 16-year-old teenager was arrested Tuesday night by police in the Chalets district of Toulouse. He used a lighter to set fire to the pants of a 43-year-old woman who he said was throwing flatulence in his face on Place Arnaud-Bernard in Toulouse.
The victim was not burned, only her clothes were damaged. Understandably, the teenager whose hot lighter was found in his shorts pocket, explained that he had no intention of hurting the fragile woman he knew otherwise.
Meanwhile, the forty-year-old man stated that he wanted revenge because she rejected his advances. At the end of his sentence, the boy was summoned to appear before a juvenile judge. The lighter was destroyed.
