Israeli police have arrested a woman caught on camera allegedly setting a petrol pump on fire while at a gas station in Jerusalem. 
 
 CCTV footage of the astonishing scene shows a woman, believed to be in her mid thirties, come up to a man who is refilling his car on the forecourt. She briefly chats to the man before moving away. She then returns and appears to go near to where the pump is filling up the vehicle's tank. 
 
 Suddenly, a fire begins around the pump and the woman runs away. The man, clearly shocked by the flames engulfing his vehicle, pulls the pump away from his car, yet this only makes the flames spread further, forcing the man to run out of view of the CCTV footage. 
 
 Within just a matter of seconds the car is completely on fire. It later emerged that the driver's brother was seated inside the vehicle when the incident took place, but that fortunately he was not harmed. 
 
 A police spokesman said in a written statement, "A woman approached a man while filling his petrol tank and asked for a cigarette, when he refused to give it to her she pulled out a lighter from her pocket and ignited the petrol pump. The car owner reacted quickly by pulling the pump that was on fire from his tank and fleeing. 
 
 "Petrol station workers extinguished the fire." 
 
 The woman in question was arrested shortly afterwards, and she denied any involvement in the incident. A court in Jerusalem has now extended her arrest by five days and sent her for psychological evaluations. ||||| Israel Police arrested a young woman who caused a fire in a Jerusalem gas station after a driver refused to give her a cigarette. 
 
 The woman was at the Paz Gas station on Derech Bethlehem in Jerusalem on Tuesday. A security camera depicts her approaching a man filling his car's gas tank. 
 
 She allegedly asked him for a cigarette, and he said no. Then she pulled a lighter out of her pocket and lit the handle of the fuel pump, which immediately caught fire. 
 
 Gas station workers put out the fire. 
 
 The suspect was arrested soon after the event by local police but denied the accusations while under investigation. ||||| A Pine Bluff man was arrested Tuesday morning on accusations that he tried to pay a waitress for a meal with her own stolen credit card. 
 
 The city's Police Department said the 58-year-old woman's car was broken into Sunday outside the United Filling Station at 5320 Dollarway Road while she was inside the store. Her purse containing her credit cards and driver's license was taken, according to a news release. 
 
 Security footage from the gas station reportedly showed that the man who stole the purse also left the pumps without paying for his gas. 
 
 He then got into a car and drove by the side of the business, where another man who had shoplifted a bottled drink inside ran out and got into the car. The pair then drove off. 
 
 Tuesday morning, the woman was working as a waitress at Shannon's Restaurant, a diner two blocks away from the gas station, police said. 
 
 When she went to ring up one customer's purchase, she reportedly looked at the card and saw her own name. 
 
 She called the police, "having no desire to pay for the fellow's meal," the release states. 
 
 The customer, 21-year-old Shamon West, was immediately arrested. Officers searched him and found the woman's driver's license, other credit cards and Social Security card, the release states. 
 
 "The driver's license, as all do, had her picture on it. Therefore, you would think he should have known what she looked like. Yet, he still handed her own credit card to her," police wrote in the news release. 
 
 West is charged with forgery and theft by receiving, police said. 
 
 He was being held at the Jefferson County jail in lieu of $2,840 bond as of Tuesday afternoon, records show. 
 
 Lt. David De Foor, a spokesman for the Pine Bluff Police Department, said he hadn't before seen a crime solved this way in his time with the agency and found it comical.

– A man who stopped for gas at a Jerusalem gas station yesterday saw his day go downhill in a flash when cops say a woman peeved that he didn't give her a cigarette set his car on fire, per Haaretz. Security footage shows the woman walking up to the guy as he fills his tank; she appears to say something to him, then momentarily walks away. But she's back in a couple of seconds—with a lighter, a police statement says, per the Independent—and as she holds her hand out to where the pump is connected to the car, the car ignites. The man was able to yank the pump out of the tank before he fled, and gas station workers put out the fire, the newspaper notes. The man's brother, said to be in the car at the time, was also reportedly unharmed. Israeli police arrested the woman, though she's apparently denying all accusations, Haaretz notes. (Cops say a California man returned to the gas station he robbed to apologize.)
