84-year-old man sets car on fire with woman inside

An 84-year-old man appeared in court on Monday after he was accused of setting a car on fire with a woman inside in Broward County.

D and the woman had recently ended a 42-year-old relationship when they got into an argument on Friday in Oakland Park, according to Broward Sheriff’s Office deputies.

D was under the influence of alcohol when he poured a flammable liquid and set the fire in the parking lot of the 7-Eleven at 3100 NW 9th Ave., according to BSO deputies.

The woman suffered third-degree burns to her left leg, and D suffered burns to his hands and face, according to BSO deputies.

D, who used a wheelchair in court, faced three charges: Premeditated attempted murder; arson causing bodily harm; and criminal attempt, solicitation, and conspiracy to commit a capital felony.

A judge denied D bond. Corrections held him at the Broward County Main Jail in Fort Lauderdale.
