Woman set on fire at 7- eleven

June 11, 2012

In South Florida a woman was cruelly burned on Monday morning after she was doused with gasoline and lit on fire due to a dispute with the father of her 4 year old son. The 34 year old woman was waiting at a 7- eleven where she was to meet her ex and pick up her son.

Roosevelt Mondesir, 52, arrived at the 7- eleven without the boy and began throwing gasoline on her car and body. The woman tried to run away but police said the man ignited her and then chased her with a knife. She tore off her shirt and ran into the store. She held the doors shut so Roosevelt could not get in while an employee called the police. Police said Roosevelt fled the scene and was caught hours later in bushes nearby the 7- eleven. Officers searched by foot, with a police dog, and by helicopter before finding him. He was arrested and charged with attempted first degree murder. The woman and Roosevelt are both being treated for burns. The victim was not identified and is expected to survive.
