Story here. Excerpt:
'A 33-year-old woman who suspected her husband of having an affair started a fire in their house Sunday, forcing the couple’s children to hide in a closet and call for help, Tacoma police reported.
Department spokeswoman Loretta Cool said the woman was burning some of her husband’s items downstairs when the rug caught fire at their home in the 3800 block of East J Street. Her husband was not home at the time.
...
Police arrested the woman on suspicion of arson and domestic violence and called Child Protective Services, who placed the children with their father. One child was treated for smoke inhalation.'

Wow.
Child Protective Services actually placed the children with their father. Imagine that. I'm impressed.
