Woman charged for Valentine's Day arson in New Milford

A fire at a New Milford condo complex on Valentine's Day was reportedly set by a woman who used her child’s sippy cup, filled with gasoline, outside the unit her husband shares with his girlfriend.  The Republican-American newspaper reports that 47-year old Monique Cook-Lino turned herself in this week. 

The Bronx woman was charged with arson and making a false statement, and arraigned Tuesday. 

The fire was intentionally set in the Bel Air condo complex, which set off the fire alarms, causing $30,000 in damages.  Police say the incident put residents and first responders in danger.

It was unclear if the child was with her during the incident.
