FOX: NYPD investigates after homeless man catches fire in Manhattan subway station
An elderly man is in critical condition after he reportedly caught on fire inside Manhattan’s Penn Station on Friday, authorities said.
Emergency personnel responded to the subway station after MTA police received a call about a man on fire at approximately 8 p.m. ET.
“MTA Police Officers responded to the scene and located a 67-year-old male with burn injuries to both of his legs and upper body,” an NYPD spokesperson said.
The man was taken to NewYork-Presbyterian / Weill Cornell Medical Center for treatment and remains in critical condition. read more
The headline wrongly leads one to think it was spontaneous combustion. More like a copy cat crime.
New York, like the old new York.
Time to kick of the Coulter’s Law timer.
Spontaneous Homeless Combustion
Man On Fire was a pretty good movie starring Denzel Washington.
My mom used to tell me always wear clean underwear because you never know if you might catch on fire and have to go to the ER.
It eliminates embarrassment.
Plus I always carry a couple bandaids in my wallet for small fires.
“ELDERLY” at 67??? I am miffed!

“My mom used to tell me always wear clean underwear because you never know if you might catch on fire and have to go to the ER.”
…having been on the other side of that myth, I can tell you definitively that no one you encounter in a medical emergency is comcerned about the cleanliness of your underwear.
A lot of folks I saw may or may not have started the day with clean underwear, but the circumstances that precipitated our meeting sometimes rendered that moot…
What, no videos of cops letting him burn?
I dont know why his being “homeless” is relevant. Where someone sleeps at night doesnt make them less human…
Hey … homeless people spontaneously combusting … it happens …
I thought I heard/read the fire extinguishers in the subways had recently been removed because some ‘less desirable’ assholes have abused them, how convenient.
Is it hot in here, or am I on fire?
And a car drove itself through a Christmas market in Germany and a gun shot some innocent person and the gig is up. When the media pulls this transparently evasive stunt there is no doubt in anyone’s mind that THE IDENTITY of the INDIVIDUAL who is RESPONSIBLE is being concealed for politically motivated purposes.
This is the dog ate my homework” level bullshit. There isn’t anyone that isn’t onto it by now. No one.
…what Noo Yawk claims this is…

Always wear clean underwear so that you don’t get accused of being a Liberal!
