Man Arrested In Connection with Mission Apartment Fire

Police arrested Willie Tucker, 56, yesterday for allegedly setting fire to an apartment building at 2949 18th St. at about 8 a.m. on Jan. 28. Tucker, a transient gentleman, it seems, set the fire "outside an apartment door of a female resident, who had reportedly befriended him months ago and given him food." What's more, the words "Welcome hell" and other illegible ramblings "were found scrawled on the door in permanent marker." Egads. Anyway, no one was injured. [via Appeal]
