fire bug
fire bug
Someone who enjoys setting fires; a pyromaniac or arsonist. I'm sure that fire bug Max set our shed on fire—it wouldn't be the first time he started a fire in the neighborhood. Wait, a fire bug is to blame for those old row homes burning down? Wow, that's horrible. Did you hear? A known fire bug escaped from police custody and burned that building to the ground.
