I almost died last night (true story)

"my brother tried to kill us
he made a firebomb with chemicals and set it on the banister
and lit it on fire
i smelled smoke so i knocked on my door before opening
we have alarms
then the smell got stronger and i heard flames so i opened my door
and i started screaming
my dad heard me and was able to put the fire out
before it exploded
but some of it dripped on the carpet"

This was the text i s ent my best friend trying to wrap my head around this

i was told if i hadn't have been my usual nosy self the whole second floor would have been engulfed in flames leaving no escape, unfortunately I did have to go to the hospital for smoke inhalation since it hit me first as I was the first one to open my door, the smoke inhalation wasn't that bad as a quickly grabbed a cloth and wrapped around my face. This all started because he called himself 'mad' When I say he tried to kill u she really did, he ran outside after setting the fire and DEADBOLTED and LOCKED the front door. After it was all said and down he was hauled of to jail with charges of Arson in the second degree. Im writing this post because I want to put out how stressful times are now, this isn't the only time he tried to set the house on fire this week BEing stuck at home with a psychopath (he really is a psychopath, all the traits diagnosed by a credited medical professional) for a month now we have loved in terror as my mom and I had to hide as we listened to him trash the house cuss everyone out and every day no this is not an exaggeration ever DAY we called the police because my dad didn't want THIS to happen, please stay safe out there y'all I'm praying for you~ Ally <3
