A video posted to social media appears to show the start of the fire that destroyed a massive paper products warehouse in Ontario. The fire started early Tuesday morning at a Kimberly-Clark Distribution Center and burned for several hours, after reaching rare six-alarm status. Police arrested 29-year-old Chamel Abdul-Karim, a current employee of the facility, on suspicion of felony arson. In the video, a man repeatedly complains about not being paid enough to afford to live, while cases of toilet paper burn. He also holds up an incendiary device and shows it to the camera. Police previously mentioned social media activity leading to Abdul-Karim’s arrest.
