Mich. Teen Charged With Setting a Man's Pants on Fire
FERNDALE, Mich. — Police in a Detroit suburb say a teenager has been charged with lighting an unconscious man's pants on fire and causing a third-degree burn to the man's groin.
Police in Ferndale, Mich., said 18-year-old Tyler Quick was arraigned Friday on a charge of assault.
Ferndale police Lt. William Wilson tells The Daily Tribune of Royal Oak that Quick was attending a party at the home of a 51-year-old man when the host passed out.
Police say Quick placed a lit candle under the man's crotch, setting fire to his pants. The man awoke and extinguished the fire. A police lieutentant said Quick thought it would be funny to burn the victim.
Authorities said Quick is being held in lieu of $25,000 bail.
They said the injured man was ticketed for contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

That just ain't right.
Providing alchohol to people under the age is generally frowned apon.
I agree though it's insult to injury.

The defense: The man had lied. The liar's pants weren't on fire. The youth was attempting to help nature, as he knew it should be.

I think the teen was just trying to perform a mankini wax using the candle.
