Man sets himself on fire outside Breivik courthouse
2012-05-16
[Emirates 24/7] A man set himself on fire on Tuesday outside an Oslo courthouse where the Norwegian mass killer Anders Behring Breivik is on trial for murdering 77 people last July, police said.

The man doused himself with liquid and set himself on fire before attempting to breach the security fence around the courthouse, police front man Kjell Kverme said.

The national daily VG posted a video on its website, vg.no , showing the man with flames on his hat and sweatshirt running toward a security checkpoint and being tackled by police.

Officers ripped his sweatshirt off and stamped out the flames.

Kverme said the man, who appeared to be a Norwegian, had shouted at police before setting himself on fire but officers could not make out what he said.

The man, who witnesses said appeared to be Caucasian and in his 50s, was taken to hospital with serious injuries on his torso.
