A young man suffered burns after a cup of flaming liquid was thrown at him, setting his clothes alight, in an unprovoked attack on the New York subway in the United States.
According to international media, citing police, the attack happened on Saturday afternoon in Manhattan, leaving the 23-year-old with burns to about a third of his body.
The victim is recovering in hospital and the suspect, 49, has been arrested.
The young man told the New York Post that he shielded his fiancee and cousin from the flammable liquid and used his bare hands to try to pat out the flames before he was helped. The victim explained the suspect had a cup, "lit it on fire and threw the whole thing".
The suspect, who was found shortly after authorities tracked a mobile phone he had also stolen from a passenger, is believed to be linked to another similar attack on the subway in February.
