"Everything was in flames, so it was horrifying,"
"It wasn't the 5 a.m. wake up I thought I was going to have on my daughter's birthday,"
"The emotional and psychological damage that followed, knowing he was out there and not really sure who he was and why it happened, left us even more afraid,"
"It will be nice to sleep again."
A man set nearly 20 fires during a three-hour spree in Brooklyn in the early hours of Aug. 20, beginning around 4:30 a.m. Surveillance video shows him lighting a fire outside a church on Clinton Avenue and later starting flames on a Pacific Street porch where a family with a 1-year-old was sleeping. A resident used an extinguisher to put out the porch fire before FDNY arrival. Investigators identified 32-year-old Bryan Oviedo, who was arrested Sept. 13 and tied to multiple blazes that caused significant damage. Oviedo has prior arrests dating to 2014 and now faces federal arson charges with an expected indictment in the coming weeks.
