Man deliberately sets fire, threatens firefighter

TULSA, Oklahoma - Police say a man deliberately set a fire to property in an apartment then threatened a Tulsa firefighter with a knife. Officers arrested Bobby Williams early Sunday morning as he tried to break into other apartments at the same complex, according to an arrest report.

Firefighters say when they first arrived at the apartment unit at 1050 East 61st Street, they found clothing, a mattress and other items burning. They learned Williams had deliberately set the fire, an arrest report states.

Williams approached one of the firefighters, holding a knife at chest level stating, "I will cut you up," police say. He then ran off.

Police say about 45 minutes later, Williams tried to raise the windows on two apartments in an attempt to enter and avoid officers. Both of the apartments were occupied at the time.

In case we needed any further evidence, meth is bad.
