Arsonist left behind fingertip

The gentleman at right is Ismael Ortiz, 24, who was arrested in Titusville, Florida for arson. Apparently, Ortiz left a tip behind for police. Literally. The cops found a piece of latex glove with a dismembered fingertip inside. From the Fort Lauderdale Sun Sentinel:

Police said they found their suspect at a local hospital. They matched the tip to 24-year-old Ismael Ortiz, who detectives said quickly confessed.

But how did the suspect clip his tip? Detective Jessica Edens explained: Trying to flee after setting the fire, "he slammed his finger in the door," Edens said, "and it cut the tip of his finger off."

Police said Ortiz told detectives he was hired by a resident of the home, Samuel "Sammy" Davis (bald guy seen here). Investigators said Davis hired Ortiz to burn down the house so he could collect on a renters insurance policy.
