Daughter of NYC carpenter Vetus Roberts, 70, who died in apartment fire calls for arsonist to be 'held accountable': 'They're going to pay'
Briefly

The NYPD had not publicly named the victim as of Saturday afternoon, but the man's daughter identified him as Vetus Roberts, 70. 'He was kind. He was a family man. He was loved dearly,' Genaira Roberts, the youngest of the victim's three children said Saturday. 'He put his family first. He would have sacrificed his last [breath] for his family.'
Authorities have said the fire was intentionally set, and a law enforcement source said a woman, 65, was being questioned in the probe. 'Whatever was done to him was wrong and whoever - if it was her or whatever - they're going to pay for it. Whoever done this needs to be held accountable. That's all we can say right now,' Roberts said.
