From her upstairs apartment, Capitola Scott could hear her neighbor, 47-year-old Gloria Davis, shrieking for help and then saw Davis being chased. Scott opened the door, yelling at her to get inside.

Police say the man chasing Davis with a jug full of gasoline was her husband of 25 years, 50-year-old Matthew Wong. The two had been separated since October.

I personally love this story. I would punish him worse, just based on the fact that he decided to be an @!$%# and failed so badly.

Well he will suffer, I can promise you that. Getting set on fire is a hard way to go.

I think it's a fitting for every person out there who tries to hurt their significant other, and especially kids. It's only fair that what they plan to do to someone else comes back to bite them on the tail.

I agree. I can only say that I am sad it was not on video. Because someone who get's this much Karma should have it filmed for the world to see. What a dumbass.
