Manchester Art Gallery, scene of the "flamethrower" attack

Not sure if you've picked this up over there.

It's fairly easy to guess who did it before you get to the description of the assailant.

The 15-year-old boy was waiting at a bus stop at 6pm yesterday in Manchester city centre when a man approached him with an aerosol can and lighter and sprayed him with lit fumes. The cadet, who was wearing his camouflaged uniform, suffered minor burns to his face and singed hairs in his face and right forearm, Greater Manchester Police said. The offender, described as black or Asian, [I.E.
