An individual, being called the fire ninja is setting fires to the homes of Jewish people in New York. No physical description of the suspect has been released, aside from his height 5’6. The so called fire ninja left a coded riddle near the scene of the latest fire on November 25th to taunt police. Since no other physical characteristics have been made public of this idiot, no one knows if he’s white, Muslim or black.

New York City police continued to hunt a serial arsonist Sunday suspected of setting fire to seven homes since early November, while neighbors in the ravaged area say the firebug – who has taunted cops with coded riddles – is targeting only Jewish residents.
According to DNAinfo.com, The NYPD Arson and Explosive Squad is investigating the fires, which began on Nov. 8 in the Forest Hills, Queens, neighborhood. There have been a total of seven fires since then, four of which investigators have deemed suspicious.
The fires all broke out at buildings that were under construction or being renovated.
Police have released video footage of the suspected arsonist who, based on the video, was described at about 5 feet, 6 inches tall, trim, and wearing a hooded sweatshirt — “looking like a ninja,” according to authorities, the news site reported
“What’s interesting here is there’s no accelerant,” NYPD’s Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce said. “It’s combustible materials found at the scene.”
