Video - Dad soaks his nail bar in fuel and torches it in an attempt to kill his wife and son

Ducbac Vuong, 52, was hospitalised alongside his wife Tram, 22, and their son, who was just five months at the time, after he torched Hollywood Nails.

His trail of acetone liquid blocked off the exit from the shop in Hailsham, East Sussex, as well as the flat where they lived upstairs. Footage shows Vuong, known to friends as Sammi, set light to the shop “in a moment of madness” before trying to extinguish flames.
