Crack Kills... Indirectly
A 46-year-old Detroit woman who was upset because another woman owed her money for drugs set fire to an apartment building, resulting in two deaths and at least 11 injuries. Among the fatalities was a four-year-old boy who died of smoke inhalation. The arsonist claims she started the fire only as a scare tactic and didn't mean to hurt anybody; she now faces possible murder charges. Whether or not she got the crack money owed to her is unknown.
