Virginia lawmaker doused with gas and set on fire

توضیحات:

Danville City Councilman J. Lee Vogler was seriously injured after being doused in gasoline and set on fire in what police say was a targeted personal attack. The suspect, 29‑year‑old Shotsie Michael Buck Hayes, allegedly entered the Showcase Magazine office and assaulted Vogler, chasing him before igniting the fuel. Vogler, who was airlifted to a hospital, is reportedly “awake and talking.” Police say the attack was unrelated to Vogler’s public role and stemmed from a personal matter between the two men, the Daily Mail has reported. Hayes was arrested shortly after and charges are pending as the investigation continues.
