Southwest Virginia-based publication Showcase Magazine owner and publisher Andrew Brooks posted a video on social media, saying that Vogler was at the magazine's office when a man forced his way inside.
According to Brooks, the man was carrying a five-gallon container of gas and poured it over Vogler.
"Lee attempted to flee, ran to the front of the building," Brooks said in the video. "The individual followed him and set him on fire."
The police department's reported witness account of the incident aligned with Brooks' account. They said the suspect fled the scene, but police stopped his vehicle and took him into custody. DPD identified the suspect as 29-year-old Shotsie Michael Buck Hayes.
Danville, VA is like pop 50K and the middle of nowhere, NC border town. a place outside the northern boundary of the Piedmont Atlantic megaregion.... fastest growing region (by population) in the US.
anyway, lugging around actual gallons of gasoline, dumping it on someone in public, and chasing them to light them on fire is fucking wild. beyond rage.
