Top 9 Surveillance Videos of the Week: Man Engulfed by Sidewalk Explosion

In this week’s Top Surveillance Videos…

A man in New York City is lucky to be alive after he was engulfed by flames from a sidewalk explosion.

Surveillance video shows the man walking down the sidewalk when he gets to an area of grates. He looks down as a puff of smoke pops up when flames suddenly shoot out of the grates.

For a moment, the man completely disappears in a cloud of smoke and flames as debris lands on the sidewalk. Eventually the man can be seen crawling away before he gets up and looks relatively unscathed aside from the ash and dust on his clothes.

The man suffered second degree burns. It is unclear what caused the explosion.

Also this week…

A woman in Indiana became fed up with the same porch pirate stealing her packages. Unfortunately for him, the woman, Mina Starsiak Hawk, happens to be a host for a show on HGTV, so she had a creative solution.

Hawk began leaving out decoy packages to discourage the thief from stealing real ones. She even turned to the Internet for suggestions on what to use.

Make sure to check out the rest of this week’s top surveillance videos, which include a brazen shooting, a yorkie defending its owner from a coyote and more.

Minnesota AG Calls for Cancellation of Home Security Contracts for Alleged Fraud

STEARNS COUNTY, Minn. — Bring Me the News reports that Minnesota’s Attorney General, Keith Ellison, says he’s gotten consumers in Stearns County out of home security contracts after they were misled by a door-to-door salesman. According to the report, Ellison’s office announced that home security companies Skyline Security Management and Safe Home Security have agreed to their cancel contracts with customers in and around Stearns County who purchased their systems from door-to-door salesman Gary Harvey. “Door-to-door salesmen and their employers are in the business of trust-building,” Ellison said in a statement. “They know they need to have your trust to sell you their products, particularly expensive products like security systems that are supposed to keep your home safe. When that trust is betrayed, it’s emotionally and financially painful. I appreciate Skyline and Safe Home taking the right step in canceling these contracts while my office does what we can under the law to ho...
