If this woman was looking to spend Thanksgiving in the hospital, then she hit the JACKPOT.

A woman in Houston was playing a slot machine at a convenience store last week with another woman. She wasn't winning . . . so she poured lighter fluid on the slot machine and SET IT ON FIRE.  (???)

The other woman was FURIOUS, because she was no longer able to play. So she started fighting with the woman, and it spilled out into the parking lot.

At that point, the mad woman SHOT the woman who started the fire, and then fled the scene. It's unclear what their relationship is, but the police say they knew each other.

The fire-starter was rushed to the hospital, and she's okay. The police are still looking for the shooter. The woman who started the fire is probably looking at charges too . . . but the police haven't announced anything yet.
