Arsonist Pleads Guilty in Pink Bar Fire | Buffalo News

John Burns, the man who set fire to the Old Pink bar in June, just took a plea deal—admitting to arson and facing up to five years in prison and a $250K fine. The blaze, sparked after a heated confrontation with security where he allegedly threatened to burn the place down, was caught on camera as he tampered with garbage cans and left a propane torch behind. Texts later revealed he was in “Guerilla mode,” hinting at more trouble to come. Though his defense pushed for mental health treatment and he’s now on home confinement, the sentence looms—October 27th is the big day. A chilling reminder of how fast rage can turn deadly.
