A man in New York has been accused of a disturbing incident in a subway station where he allegedly threw a flammable substance on a stranger, causing burns before fleeing the scene. The incident, captured on video from February, shows the suspect holding two objects from which fire shoots out. Over the weekend, the suspect, identified as a 49-year-old man, was taken into custody.
The victim, a 23-year-old individual, suffered burns after the flammable substance ignited his shirt. Fortunately, the victim is reported to be in stable condition at the hospital. The incident occurred around 2:45 p.m. on a Saturday at a downtown Manhattan subway station.
