We still do not know the reasons for his action. A 70-year-old man set himself on fire Thursday evening in front of the Toulouse courthouse, firefighters said this Friday. The fire lit by this man “was quickly extinguished by the security personnel of the establishment” located in the historic center of Toulouse, the same source said in a brief press release.
The victim “was transported to the Rangueil hospital center for medical treatment in an absolute emergency”, in the south of the city, it was further underlined, without further details.
