A woman describes the moment some guy told her to get far away before he lit himself on fire somewhat near the courthouse of the Donald Trump trial in New York City. ABC7NY reported on story of the man who lit himself on fire, identifying him in the process:
Trump was inside the Lower Manhattan courthouse where jury selection had just been completed shortly after 1:30 p.m. NYPD identified the man as Max Azzarello, 37, of St. Augustine, Florida. He arrived in New York earlier this week. Police said he walked into Collect Pond Park, an area where both protesters and members of the public can gather, and threw pamphlets into the air. Eyewitness News talked to a witness who said the man then silently doused himself with what appeared to be gasoline. The NYPD later said accelerant appeared to be an alcohol-based cleaning solution.
I’m just glad he lit himself on fire and was courteous not to harm anyone else. To that, I pay great respects to this man and I hope he’s free from whatever was troubling him. If he survived, then I hope he gets the help he so desperately needs. Pray for his family, they’re out there somewhere wishing this didn’t happen.
