WASHINGTON — A fire official says a man has been flown to the hospital after setting himself on fire on the National Mall.

Fire crews responded Friday afternoon to a report of a man on fire at 7th Street and Madison Drive. A witness says she saw a man dump a red canister of gasoline on his head and then set himself on fire.

Users took to social media to share photos and details of the scene.

"Just witnessed the craziest thing ever… a man set himself on fire and danced down the Mall. #horrifying," tweeted @LiveMusicGirl.

@Stephanie_Gus wrote, "Sitting at the #nationalmall where a man lot himself on fire. Helicopter landing to take injured…?"

D.C. Fire Department spokesman Tim Wilson says the man has life-threatening injuries.

His name and age weren't immediately known.

Katy Scheflen says she was walking along the Mall when she saw a man by himself pick up a can of gasoline and empty its contents on his head before setting himself ablaze.

She says passing joggers took off their shirts to help douse the flames.
