Surveillance footage shows a man in a hooded jacket pouring gasoline on the sidewalk outside an apartment building on Rochambeau Avenue before lighting it on fire in the middle of the night.
"My tenants could have been burned. A lot of people inside this building… we could have had a lot of deaths," said building owner Katrina Curanaj.
She says she has no idea who would do this or why, but the random act has left her on edge.
"I want them to catch him, put him away and throw the key and do not release him," she said.
