An arson suspect was being held at headquarters as I arrived to see the commissioner. "Damage to Carver's gas stations in the thousands", the commissioner said. "We think Blake here who works at the station did it". I questioned the suspect who said the fire started while he was being robbed. It was raining and blowing that night, Blake recalls, when two men drove up. "One lit a cigarette and the lighted match dropped in the pail of gasoline I was using to clean the pavement. That's how the fire started". "Book him", I said, "for arson". I'll explain. In the case of the fiery fraud, the suspect said it was rainy and blowing the night of the fire. If a match had been flipped into a pail of gas, it wouldn't have ignited. Gas fumes, not gasoline, cause fire.
