Maniac repeat offender accused of setting Chicago train rider on fire now charged with trying to torch City Hall
By Patrick Reilly

The deranged career criminal charged with setting a woman on fire on a Chicago train last month has been indicted on an additional charge for allegedly trying to torch City Hall just days earlier.

Lawrence Reed, 50, “maliciously damaged and attempted to damage and destroy” Chicago’s City Hall building on Nov. 14, prosecutors alleged in court records released Thursday.

Thankfully, the fire did not spread beyond the initial flames and did not cause damage, Mayor Brandon Johnson has said.
 
Three days after the City Hall fire, Reed allegedly doused a 26-year-old commuter with an accelerant and set her ablaze while aboard a CTA train.

The media is really going all out to paint this guy as a lunatic to absolve the mayor and previous democrat mayors of culpability for his running loose. :yowsa:

Careful, now. You might just be insulting the next mayor of Chicago.
