Alleged fire bomber sets himself alight
Quote:
A man, believed to be a fire bomber, burst into flames in a shop in Belfast city centre on Monday night.
He ran off with his clothes on fire through shoppers in the Cornmarket area.

Quote:
"He appeared to move something underneath his jacket and seconds later a large flame ignited inside his coat and engulfed his head and shoulders as he attempted to put the flames out with his hands," he said.
"He ran out of the shop in the direction of Ann Street, having dropped the device that he had in his pocket."
Ch Supt McCrum described the suspect as about 6ft, plump, wearing a dark, black waterproof coat and a beany hat.

Sounds like a fireproof coat may have been more useful...

Oh what a shame...
Maybe the pain will make him realise that outside of a few nut jobs there is no appetite for a return to the way things were.

Apparently he was wearing a blazer and had an Armalite.

Re: Alleged fire bomber sets himself alight
I hope his skin drops off. People don't want a return to the violence.

I don't think the violence has really gone away sadly, it's just on a much smaller scale. Hopefully one day it'll be a thing of the past.

I wish I could share your optimism. Unfortunately there are people who are intent on dragging us backwards.

If all the shoppers had just blown on him as he run past it would've been a start
