"The man who set himself on fire outside the Manhattan courthouse where Donald Trump’s trial is under way has now been identified as a self-described “investigative researcher” who posted a conspiracy-laden manifesto online moments before the incident.
The fire broke out just after full jury selection ended for Mr Trump’s trial. Authorities identified the man as Max Azzarello from St Augustine, Florida at a Friday press conference. Mr Azzarello is now at the Weill Cornell Medicine Burn Center for treatment. Police responded to a 911 call for the incident after 1.30 pm local time, a public information officer for the New York Police Department (NYPD) told The Independent."
