Stone was arrested after investigators spoke to the victim about what happened.

“The defendant and the victim share a child together,” the complaint says.

The criminal complaint alleges that “The defendant assaulted the victim by dousing her with gasoline, and lighting her on fire,” resulting in severe burns that necessitated medical treatment and surgical procedures. The victim herself provided this information.
