WTF? Man Sets Self on Fire @ Washington DC Great Mall
Quote:
Witnesses told NBC Washington's Mark Segraves they saw a man pouring gasoline on himself, then possibly setting himself on fire. Several joggers nearby ripped their shirts off in an attempt to subdue the flames.
The man was airlifted to a local hospital. No word yet on his condition, although the Associated Press is reporting he suffered life-threatening injuries.
The incident comes a day after Capitol Police shot and killed an unarmed woman following a high-speed chase that started outside the White House, where she had tried to ram a gate with her car, and ended near the Capitol. Nearly three weeks ago, a man opened fire at the Washington Navy Yard, killing 12 people.
Tensions in the nation's capital are already high, as Congress works through the fourth day of the first government shutdown in 17 years.
