He set the house on fire when dinner was late

What do you do when your wife is late getting dinner ready?

According to a man in West Virginia, you set fire to the house.

Guy Edward Jones, 60, of Derrick's Creek Road near Sissonville, allegedly came home after a night of drinking late Sunday and got mad because his wife, Beverly Jones, didn't have dinner on the table, said Lt. Sean Crosier of the Kanawha County Sheriff's Department.

Crosier said the couple got into a fight and Mrs. Jones ran to a neighbor's house. Crosier said she turned around to see flames coming out of the basement and her husband coming out of the basement door.

Mr. Jones was arrested and charged with first-degree arson. He was put in Jail the next morning in lieu of $50,000 bond.
