Ontario warehouse arsonist cited Mangione in messages, prosecutors say
Chamel Abdulkarim, a 29-year-old employee of NFI Industries, started a fire at a 1.2-million-square-foot Kimberly-Clark warehouse in Ontario, CA, after posting a video and texting coworkers about pay and profits, and reportedly comparing himself to Luigi Mangione. He faces multiple state and federal charges of aggravated arson and arson of a structure, with the blaze destroying hundreds of millions in products and prompting a massive firefighting response. He will be prosecuted first at the state level; potential penalties include 10 years to life in prison.
