A Ring doorbell caught one of the most instant-karma videos the internet has ever seen on March 4, when an arsonist set himself on fire in Corona, California.

You gotta see this:

Was that thing smothered in gasoline, or what???

There's nothing in the story about this and it's confusing on so many levels.

The fire destroyed the vehicle and did some moderate damage to the home, but I just want to know how much damage our arsonist did to himself.
