Share This Post

The California man who is accused of randomly setting a 68-year-old victim on fire has been criminally charged, police say.

Bradley Marcrum, 24, was charged with attempted murder, mayhem and elder abuse this week, according to FOX 2 San Francisco. He was arrested by Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) police on suspicion of robbery Wednesday.

Police say that Marcrum approached the 68-year-old victim near Bonar Street and University Avenue in Berkeley shortly before 8 p.m. on June 28. He then allegedly doused the victim, who he did not know, with gasoline and lit him on fire before fleeing.

The victim suffered life-threatening burns and is now in stable condition. Bystanders were able to put the fire out with water and render aid before he was taken to a hospital.
