A woman from Pennsylvania has been arrested after police said she allegedly lit her boyfriend on fire and used urine to put out the flames.

Leigh Ann Sepelyak, 38, is facing attempted homicide and arson charges after a heated argument with her boyfriend, sources claim.

According to investigators, Sepelyak doused the man in gas and used a lit cigarette to ignite it. She then used a bucket of urine to put out the fire.

The couple was using the bucket as a toilet.

The man was taken to a hospital for treatment and suffered bus on a quarter of his entire body.

It’s unclear what the couple was arguing about.

A woman has been accused of setting her boyfriend on fire and then trying to put the flames out with urine.

‘The parents, when they heard screaming and smelled the smoke, helped put him out – I think with the same urine – and went to the hospital,’ Penn Hills Police Chief Howard Burton said.

Spencer suffered bus on 25% to 35% of his lower body.
