This is the terrifying moment a firebomb exploded as a heroin addict led an arson attack on a house as part of a drugs feud.
Violent thug Luke Geoghegan, 28, was caught on CCTV hurling a hammer to smash the front window so accomplices could throw Molotov cocktails.
But the midnight raid went horribly wrong when one petrol bomb exploded prematurely in the garden next door in a quiet city suburb.
Another gang member appeared unable to light her makeshift bomb.
The target of the raid was not even at home that night, Plymouth Crown Court in Devon heard.
Police believe the gang was attacking the man renting the house as part of a drugs turf war.
Drugs enforcer Geoghegan was convicted of arson reckless as to whether life was endangered following a day-long trial.
