What size hose did the Super Tender carry ?

Anyone know what percentage of working fires are arson by borough for the lst couple of years. ? I am curious how Staten Island compares.

I wonder if the suspect had any prior arson arrests or this was his first time. Question is, is he a fire bug or a disgruntled employee ?

Not a big deal. Thanks for the research.

If I am not mistaken I believe that there was another fire on that street and maybe the same house several years ago that was much worse with a collapsed roof.
