BERLIN: German police said they are hunting a man who on Sunday doused his wife with flammable liquid in a tram and set fire to her, causing critical wounds.
The 46-year-old woman was targeted as she was inside the tram in Gera, in eastern Germany. “She was sprayed with flammable liquid and set alight by a man,” police for the state of Thuringia said, clarifying later that the suspect was the victim´s husband.
When other passengers pressed the emergency stop button, the perpetrator took advantage of the doors opening to flee. The tram´s driver used a fire extinguisher to put out the flames, but the woman sustained life-threatening wounds and was taken by helicopter to hospital.
