D.C. police are seeking a man who set a homeless man on fire on H Street NE early Wednesday. Police said that the victim died Friday from his injuries after being in the hospital.

The decedent has been identified as 62-year-old Darryl Finney. He suffered burns to his lower extremities and had his belongings destroyed in the attack in the 900 block of H Street NE, police said.

The suspect is also suspected of trying to set a second man on fire and lighting a car and a front porch ablaze. About a half-hour earlier, a man ignited a shirt doused in flammable liquid and threw it at another man, but he was unhurt.
