Winchester Police are searching for a man who set fire to a police cruiser.

The incident occurred on Broadway near Burns Street Monday night. Two witnesses saw a green four door passenger car stop, then watched as a man threw a bottle with accelerant through the back window.

The cruiser immediately caught fire, but the damage was contained thanks to the two witnesses calling 911 right as it happened.

The victim fled the scene to safety and called the police. He was taken to the local hospital to be treated for a broken nose, possible concussion and multiple lacerations.

Randall was booked into the Fayette County Detention Center.

A 2015 house fire has been ruled an arson and a Lexington couple has been charged with the crime.

The fire happened in May of last year at a home on E. Second Street. Officials say Angel and China Benitez set the house, owned by China’s mother, on fire to collect insurance money on the home.

Fire investigators say a tipster came forward claiming to have overheard the couple plotting the crime in the days leading up to the fire.

They told investigators they heard the couple talking with China’s mother about moving out their belongings and replacing them with broken furniture so it looked like she still lived there.

Documents also say Angel was promised a shopping spree and other clothing in exchange for committing the crime.

The two are charged with second-degree arson and are set to be arraigned Thursday.

A man walking down the road over the weekend, was hit by a car and left for dead in Lexington. Police said the 46-year old man has life threatening injuries, and investigators need the public’s help finding the driver.

The hit and run happened at around 2:30 a.m. on Sunday morning on La Flame Alley. An alley between Hillcrest Avenue and East Seventh Street, which runs along Winchester Road.

“Really nothing much going on, but every now and again there will  be a little noise,” said Nana Seiring.

For seven years Seiring has lived in the neighborhood next to La Flame Alley. She said early on Sunday Morning she heard a loud noise, but didn’t think much of it at the time.

“It just sounded like a, a very loud clap of thunder,” said Seiring.

Lexington Police said the man walking down the alley was hit by a car, and the driver sped off.

“It’s very upsetting from the standpoint of, just basically humanity. You should stop and help someone if you were involved in a collision of any type,” said Sgt. Ronald Keaton with Lexington Police.

Investigators said the man was dragged by the vehicle, and left on the road with life threatening injuries. He is currently at the hospital, but is unconscious. Therefore, police said investigators are in the dark when it comes to the driver, other than they’re a danger.

“They ran a person down and then fled the scene, and that person is still on the streets. And we don’t know at this point who it is, or where they are,” said Keaton.

Therefore, police need people in the area to speak up. They’re asking anyone who saw or heard anything strange to come forward. People with information on this case can call Lexington Police or stay anonymous and call Bluegrass Crime Stoppers at 859-253-2020.

“If I were to hit somebody, I would stop my car and get out. And see if I could help them, you know,” said Seiring.

Seiring said it’s about doing the right thing, and she has faith justice will prevail.

“I hope they catch him, put him in jail,” said Seiring.
