Charges filed in Super celebration
PITTSBURGH (AP) — A University of Pittsburgh student who's also a volunteer firefighter is accused of adding lighter fluid to a burning couch after the Steelers' Super Bowl victory.
Police say 22-year-old Andrew Ablog is charged with arson and risking a catastrophe. He lives in Monaca, where he's a volunteer firefighter.
Police say Ablog was seen on an Internet video and a concerned student alerted university police.
Thousands of people took to the streets after the Steelers won their sixth title on Feb. 1 and dozens were arrested for setting small fires, throwing bottles and overturning cars.
Ablog has a preliminary hearing scheduled May 21. He did not immediately respond to a message left Tuesday seeking comment.
