Authorities are reporting that Quinn Nelson, 31, of Indianapolis,Indiana, purposefully set his girlfriend on fire during a heated dispute in Indianapolis’ east side over the weekend, police said.(Source)
Investigators said Nelson, used a flammable liquid accelerant to set his girlfriend 47-year-old Rebecca Mumaw, on fire.(Source)
The woman is recuperating at Wishard Hospital after sustaining burns that left her in critical condition. She is suffering from severe burns to the upper part of her body.
Detectives were called to the scene due to the severity of Mumaw’s burns and the fact that it is illegal to set another human being on fire, on purpose for any reason.(Source)
IMPD Officers were dispatched to the 2900 block of Brookside Avenue Saturday around 6 a.m. to assist IFD firefighters with a person burned.
Catherine Cummings, IMPD spokeswoman said that Mumaw survived the burns but faces a long road to full recovery.
Firestarter Nelson faces a preliminary charge of attempted murder.
Nelson allegedly poured lighter fluid on Mumaw then set her on fire after going crazy during an argument.
A motive isn’t known at this time…but if he felt he had to burn her, he should have taken that as a good sign that the relationship is ending.Now, because of her injuries, and his incarceration…it is definitely over.
