A West Virginia man says he was consumed with jealousy over his girlfriend’s occupation as a stripper, so he decided to solve the problem by torching her place of employment.
Creio Bishop, 21, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with second-degree arson for allegedly setting fire to JB's Gentleman’s Club at 3330 US 60 in Huntington.
According to a statement from the Office of the State Fire Marshal, the blaze ignited just after 3.30am on Wednesday, after which Bishop fled on foot from the scene - but he did not get far.

Deputies with the Cabell County Sheriff's Department caught up with the suspected arsonist in a Walmart parking lot across the street from the burning strip joint and detained him.
When questioned about his motive, the 21-year-old 'excitedly stated he was tired of his girlfriend working at JB's, so he set it on fire,‘ according to a criminal complaint obtained by WCHS-TV.
Bishop was transported to the Western Regional Jail, where he was ordered held on $10,000 bond.
No injuries were reported as a result of the fire, which scorched the front door, siding, wall, air conditioning unit and surveillance camera at the adult night club.
JB's general manager Jim Reed estimated the total damage to the business at $1,000.

Speaking to the station WSAZ, Reed said that Bishop’s girlfriend, first identified by The Smoking Gun as McKayla Biedenbach had been dancing at the club for the last six months to earn a living.
He described the woman as ‘quiet and nice,’ but said that if her boyfriend is released from jail, he would be forced to let her go.
‘I hate doing it but I got to protect my business,’ Reed said. ‘He might do this again. It might be worse next time.’
Social media posts reveal that Bishop and Biedenbach met in high school and have been together since 2013.
