Another CTA Arson
This seems to be a trend of some sort:
A man is in custody after setting his belongings and himself on fire while on a CTA Blue Line train at the Damen stop Friday morning, Chicago police said.
The Chicago Fire Department said it responded just after 6 a.m. for a man who set himself on fire outside the Damen stop.
Chicago police said the 52-year-old man was on a moving train when he intentionally set a small fire using his personal belongings. The fire also caused the man to catch fire, causing burns to his leg, CPD said.
The fire was put out. CFD said the man was taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition, but CPD said he was in good condition.
Some lib-tard somewhere will claim all these fires being set on the CTA are just the homeless trying to keep warm.

Crazy! This guy could be Superintendent.
Perhaps CTA needs to start hiring TSA and start the same procedures getting on CTA just like getting on a plane.
Climate change did this 😆 🤣 😂
I spent the summer of 2022 working the Green Line. Never a dull moment. Fair card machines were unplugged in the lobby so customers could get tattoos or hair cuts. Every elevator was used as a toilet. People openly used narcotics, smoked, drank alcohol, and urinated on trains and platforms. People sold drinks, cigarettes, weed and dope on CTA property. Unpoliced for years. One stop got a make over. Closed the liquor store and revitalized the whole corner. The people now bring their own chairs to sit and sell.
That will read due to high energy costs and the Trump admin cutting back on free money for heat the man had to stay warm. Signed by brandon.
CTA needs to go belly up.
The band Chicago originally formed in 1967 as The Big Thing, then changed their name to Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) before shortening it to just "Chicago" to avoid legal issues with the real transit system. Their first album was titled Chicago Transit Authority.
ugh fire bad
He was cold!
If this becomes a trend maybe they should have designated burn areas.
maybe our mayor could give up 75% of his bodyguard detail to protect the citizens of Chicago .
OK, get ready to boogie! Sing-along now, A one a two a three; “I heard somebody say Burn Baby Burn disco inferno, Burn Baby Burn.” Let the bastard do just that until he’s a crispy critter. Oh, stay the hell off the CTA. NO SPECIAL!
It never will cause the fat pig governor will keep bailing them out at our expense
Warming Center.
Love the smell of burnt piss bum pants in the Morning. Good Morning Stalingrad!
Never sat in a seat when I would take the train to traffic court and always stayed by one of the doors. Some of those train cars smelled worse than a CTA elevator or stairwell.
OMG! I hope he can still vote Democratic.
Fire 🔥 fire 🔥 I wish that animal that lit the young lady on fire 🔥 would’ve burnt himself up.
