Law enforcement in Atlanta have credited good Samaritans including two off-duty NYPD officers with stopping a woman from trying to burn down the childhood home of civil rights icon Jr. Tourists recorded a video showing the 26-year-old suspect aggressively pouring gasoline from a large red can over bushes and front windows over the house where King lived until he was 12 years old. In the clip, a witness twice asks: 'What are you doing?' The woman signals with her hand for him to leave her alone. 'That's gasoline,' he tells her. Those witnesses later said that they stepped in when they saw her attempting to ignite a lighter on the lawn.
