A man in his 50s went to a police box and was caught by the police while trying to set himself on fire by pouring gasoline on his body. I did this out of resentment when I had an accident with drunk driving and my license was revoked.

<Reporter> A
truck comes into a police box in Miryang, Gyeongnam.
The driver gets out of the car and takes the water bottle out of the luggage compartment.
He then starts pouring liquid on his body, and the police see it and run out to stop him.
It was gasoline that was splashed on the body.
In his right hand he held a lighter.
[Park Jae-seong / Miryang Police Station Out-of-Site Police Box: I took the barrel while trying to spray oil and I couldn't light it with a lighter, so I passed it over and suppressed it.] This
is Mr. A in his 50s who was in a drunken state.
The man had already had his license revoked for drunk driving four months ago.
At the time, he couldn't overcome the drunken crackdown, so he drank again and made a riot here.
When my license was revoked and I was fined, I did this with resentment.
The man had called several times to set fire to himself and set fire to himself, so the police could prepare for a major accident.
[Kyung Chang-soo / Miryang Police Station Outside Police Station Director: I called the police box several times, 'I'm going to set fire to the police box, and I'm going to set fire to it', so we were waiting to see if we would really come.] The
police charged Mr. A with charges of arson, etc. I am going to apply for an arrest warrant.
