š¤ Lurking š¤ š¤
A 32 year old man suffered burns to 80% of his body after setting himself on fire this past Wednesday, next to the Artigas monument located in the Plaza Indepedencia in Montevideo, capital of Uruguay.
The reason for the episode is not yet known, but someone took a chilling video showing fire fighters and police officers putting out the blaze with extinguishers.
The press chief of the General Directorate of firefighters of Uruguay, reported that the incident began "around 10:30" on Wednesday, when the man left a bar he was drinking in, in front of the Executive Tower and instead "a liquid was thrown and then with a lighter it starts a fire".
That moment was recorded in a video taken by a witness, who in his disbelief, shared it on WhatsApp.
The man was admitted to the National Center for Burn Care after passing through The Hospital de Clinicas de Montevideo..."Initially, burns were diagnosed on 80% of his body".
