CNN: Teen apologizes for setting Michael Brewer on fire

A 13-year-old who witnessed another teen being set on fire last month apologized Tuesday, saying he is praying for the boy’s recovery and he is sorry for what happened.

Reading to reporters from a statement, Jeremy Jarvis — whose older brother has been charged in the incident — said that victim Michael Brewer is in his prayers.

“I want to read something I wrote last night,” Jarvis said. “I want to express my deepest sympathy to Mikey and his family. I will pray for Mikey to grow stronger every day and for Mikey’s speedy recovery.”

Brewer, 15, remains in guarded condition at the University of Miami’s Jackson Memorial Hospital Burn Center. He suffered third-degree burns over 65 percent of his body in the Deerfield Beach, Florida, incident October 12, authorities have said.
