Sign of the times...cont'd.

How Detroiters handle neighborhood problems these days - DetFP

"[DFD]...said the home on the 5900 block of Manistique was in [the] middle of three homes firebombed late Wednesday. Broadcast reports said neighbors of the couple may have been targeted because of an ongoing feud in which the husband and wife weren’t involved." 

Speaking of a husband who died saving his wife when their home was firebombed. What makes this story "newsworthy" isn't the death and injury involved but the serial arson aspect. If the perp/s had used an AK-47 to spray the homes with bullets it would just be another news story of senseless violence and death from Detroit.
