A man who had been on a drinking binge nearly burned down his sister's home after lighting a barbecue in the front room to fry some sausages.

Dariusz Garbacki started the fire in a disposable barbecue and poured lighter fluid on it to get it going.

To help fuel the fire he ripped three internal doors off their hinges and tore up floorboards at the house in Pennfields, Wolverhampton.

The 28-year-old also disabled a smoke alarm system so that neighbours would not be alerted to what he was doing.

He then fled the house on June 10 after realising the damage he had caused but was arrested nearby by West Midlands police.[/B]

He was jailed for three years on Friday after pleading guilty to arson.

PC Mark Holt, said: Garbacki had recently lost his job as a builder.

He said: 'It seems that sparked a prolonged drinking session that ultimately led him to start what could have been a devastating fire by lighting the barbecue indoors.

'It could be argued he acted irrationally due to alcohol. However, he tore down all the fire alarms inside the property so the smoke would not activate them and alert neighbours or passersby.

'The fire caused a significant amount of damage and burned a large hole in the floor and joists.

'It's a terraced house so the blaze could easily have spread to adjoining homes. It's lucky no-one was injured or killed.'

Garbacki was left alone in the house on June 10 after his sister, who he was staying with, went to work.

When she returned home she found three burned doors and the shattered smoke alarms scattered in the back garden.

No word on the status of the sausages.

Yeah I've had a rough night on the turps as well but fuck this guy needs to ease up.

This is straight out of The Sims.

Pretty sure I saw this guy in the street before.

Or maybe that's because 90% of residents around here are bald alcoholics.

Seems dumb to give someone like this "three years" clearly he has a few screws loose.

I've been drunk loads of times but I've never wanted to do anything stupid like destroying something or doing something incredibly dangerous.
