A man was seriously hurt on Friday in what one witness says was a botched robbery and attack with fire in Surrey, B.C.

Surrey RCMP is remaining tight-lipped, only saying it was investigating a “series of serious incidents” including an assault, which began at a business in the 10200 block of City Parkway.

Jessica Vesper said she was inside the currency exchange when a man engulfed in flames came running from the back of the business, screaming. Witnesses believe the man was the shop’s owner.

“It was like a movie; he ran right by me. His entire body was on fire, his face, his head was on fire, his entire arms were on fire, he was burning alive,” she said.
