Lorrison allegedly injured the woman with whom he has a domestic relationship and set fire to the apartments before fleeing in the woman’s van, according to authorities.

Seminole County Fire Department crews evacuated all apartments near the fire, according to the police report. The fire was so intense that it blocked a staircase, forcing several residents to leap from a balcony, where they were caught by firefighters below.
