Some officers and bystanders rushed to the aid of the man, who was hospitalized in critical condition.<\/p>\n<p>The man, who police said had traveled from Florida to New York in the last few days, hadn&#8217;t breached any security checkpoints to get into the park. <\/p>\n<p>The park outside the courthouse has been a gathering spot for protesters, journalists and gawkers throughout Trump\u2019s trial, which began with jury selection Monday. <\/p>\n<p>Through Friday, the streets and sidewalks in the area around the courthouse were generally wide open and crowds have been small and largely orderly. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wsw__embed\">\n<figure class=\"media-image js-media-expand\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n<div class=\"thumb\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A metal can sits on the ground at the scene where a man lit himself on fire in a park outside Manhattan criminal court in New York, April 19, 2024.\" src=\"https:\/\/gdb.voanews.com\/01000000-0a00-0242-6494-08dc60b79faa_w250_r0_s.jpg\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"ico ico-fullscreen ico--media-expand ico--rounded\"\/>\n<\/div><figcaption>\n<span class=\"caption\">A metal can sits on the ground at the scene where a man lit himself on fire in a park outside Manhattan criminal court in New York, April 19, 2024.<\/span><br \/>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Authorities said they were also reviewing the security protocols, including whether to restrict access to the park.
