ALBANY, GA (WALB) - Someone tried to set a South Albany mobile home on fire Thursday night.  

Investigators say gasoline was splashed onto the side of Garlin Coachman's home on Cedar Avenue and someone tried to light it.  

It didn't burn long, though. Witness saw the whole thing and put out the fire. They told police the arsonist rode off on a bicycle.

Three people inside the mobile home were not injured.
