PHILADELPHIA — A West Philadelphia man, frustrated that his girlfriend had ended their relationship, drove to her home in Darby Township early Sunday and started a fire that killed her younger sister, investigators said Wednesday.
Aaron Clark, 30, was charged with first- and third-degree murder, attempted murder, reckless endangerment, and related offenses for allegedly setting the blaze, in which Olivia Drasher, 20, died.
Delaware County District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer called Clark's behavior "an act of pure evil," and pledged to hold him accountable for the death of Drasher, who was confined to a wheelchair.
