This thieving Grinch tried to torch Christmas.

A Tennessee man – whose heart was perhaps two sizes too small – played the role of holiday villain Sunday when he burned down a family’s Christmas tree and a baby’s gifts under it, authorities said.

James Walker, 25, allegedly stole items from an apartment and stuffed them in his automobile before he heartlessly threw a baby’s blanket over the tree and lit it on fire, Dyersburg police said in a Facebook post.

Responding officers saw that a window was opened to vent the hearth and the house’s smoke detector was covered up, police said.

The victim wasn’t home on the time of the hearth that occurred shortly after midnight, but later told police that the suspect was an acquaintance. The victim also told officers earlier that day that she and her brother got into an altercation with Walker, based on authorities.

Walker was arrested by cops following a brief foot pursuit, authorities said. Amongst the fees he faces include aggravated burglary, aggravated arson, resisting arrest and public intoxication.

Dyersburg police – through its outreach program – also help the victimized household by replacing the kid’s gifts that were destroyed and even contributed a couple of extra toys ahead of Christmas Day, the department said.
