Police in Logan, Utah say a man set his couch on fire and burned his hands after he put his marijuana ashes in a paper bag. The Herald Journal reports the man was hurt when he tried to put out the fire with his hands after smoking the pot on Thursday afternoon. Eventually, someone in the house got a garden hose and doused the blaze shortly before fire trucks from multiple agencies arrived at the house. Logan Police Capt. Tyson Budge says officers seized a small amount of marijuana but did not issue a citation. Budge says investigators figured the burns were punishment enough.

A former student at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) is facing several charges after he allegedly impersonated a doctor on multiple occasions and gave at least one patient a medical diagnosis. 23-year-old Ariya Ouskouian was charged this week with one felony count of providing a medical diagnosis while impersonating a doctor and eight misdemeanor accounts of “representing oneself as a licensed medical practitioner.” In May, Ouskouian allegedly diagnosed a man regarding a growth on his neck in a consult room at UCI. On seven different occasions between April and June, he also allegedly impersonated a doctor at Children’s Hospital of Orange County. The Orange County District Attorney’s Office claims Ouskouian told a security worker he was a doctor and later gained access to restricted floors of the children’s hospital. The former student could face three years in state prison and eight years in the Orange County Jail if he’s convicted. (https://goo.gl/4MrL5B)
