A brazen duo – including one career criminal with dozens of prior arrests – was arrested for allegedly setting a sleeping man on fire inside Penn Station this week, authorities said Wednesday. Damon Johnson, 47, of Brooklyn – who has 88 prior arrests – was picked up Tuesday morning and charged with attempted murder, assault and reckless endangerment in connection to the late Monday attack on the 37-year-old victim inside the hub’s Amtrak Rotunda on 31st Street near Seventh Avenue, police said. William Miller Lyla Najjar, 33, of Queens, was nabbed Wednesday morning and faces an assault charge in connection to the callous crime, cops said.
