http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/man-charged-in-deadly-blaze-67151522.htmlJustin Rosdobutko often told family members of his dream to become a Winnipeg firefighter. Now the 25-year-old man is sitting in a jail cell, accused of setting a blaze at a city bathhouse that killed two people.
"To say this is a bit of a surprise would be an understatement," his uncle, Jamey Rosdobutko, told the Free Press Wednesday from his home in Thunder Bay, Ont.. "As ironic as it is, he was looking to become a fireman."
Police arrested Justin Rosdobutko Tuesday night following an extensive investigation of the deadly Oct. 11 fire at the Aquarius Men's Bath on Notre Dame Avenue. Steven Yablonski, 23, of Winnipeg, and Robert Clark, 62, of Saskatchewan, were both killed. Yablonski was a well-known local drag queen and performer.
