FEASTERVILLE, Pa. - A man angry that he got no presents for Christmas burned down his parents' house early the next morning, police said.

Steven Murray, 21, was charged with arson and risking a catastrophe in the blaze that broke out early Sunday. No one was injured.

Police said Murray had himself committed to a hospital on Christmas Day, but then signed himself out and walked eight miles home. Later he told police he saw the flames in the distance.

But officers said his jacket smelled of smoke and they found a lighter in his pocket and a gas can near the front door.

"He was irritated that his family gave him no presents for Christmas," Lower Southampton police officer Peter Liese said.

Murray was jailed on $1 million bail. It was not immediately known whether he had a lawyer.

wow :Q

I'm 22 and my parents and I have always exchanged gifts. The types of gifts have changed though. It used to be video games, movies, and music and now it's clothes for work and books. Now that I have a job, I'm able to afford something nice for them to try to "pay back" my parents for all thier years of doing the parenting thing.
