Police Provide Update On Man Who Lit Himself On Fire Outside Trump Trial

The man who self-immolated outside the courthouse where Trump’s trial is being held has been identified. In a press conference Friday afternoon, authorities identified the man as Maxwell Azzarello, 37, from St. Augustine, Florida, who arrived in the city sometime this week. Police said they had contacted his family and they were unaware he was in New York. Local law enforcement agencies said they were unfamiliar with Azzarello and that he remained in critical condition and intubated at Cornell Burn Center. Officials said the papers he had were "propaganda-based" pamphlets about conspiracy theories and that the accelerant he used was some kind of "alcohol-based substance used for cleaning." It is not believed that the self-immolation was related to the Trump trial taking place across the street.
