Absolutely horrific footage coming out of Manhattan where a man apparently self-immolated (set himself on fire) in the Trump supporter area right outside of the courthouse. This act occurred immediately after the full 18 person jury was officially seated, although it is unclear if this is related to Trump or some other protest…or maybe mental illness.
In the above video, Laura Coates from CNN does an absolutely incredible job relaying to viewers what she is seeing and hearing in the moment. Shots of the fire are far enough away to limit the gore, but videos circulating online are pretty horrific.
Reports are the man was still moving and alive as the fire was being put out.
We will update this post as news on motive and, most importantly, the man’s condition, come out.
