Someone screamed 'don't do it' before man set himself on fire - BBC reporter
A man has set himself on fire outside the court in Manhattan where former President Donald Trump's hush-money trial is being held.
The man doused himself in a liquid before throwing conspiracy-theory pamphlets into the air, police said.
His motive is unknown and police responded to the scene.
Mr Trump was in the building to attend jury selection, where he has had a security detail, but the former president left during the incident.
Emergency officials said that court security had not been breached in the incident. The case, which had just completed alternate jury selection, resumed later in the afternoon. Opening statements are expected to begin on Monday.
In a news conference, investigators said they had received a 911 emergency call at around 13:30 local time (18:30 BMT) telling them that a man had lit himself on fire.
