Gaylor rolls around and gets up various times before troopers use a fire extinguisher to spray him. The air becomes smoky and troopers are seen surrounding Gaylor as the fire is put out.

The fire was caused by a gallon of gasoline that Gaylor had in his backpack, according to authorities.

The electric discharge from a deputy who fired his Taser at a Wawa gas station in Orange County, Florida, started a fire that burned a man’s body and injured three other deputies in February.

Surveillance footage showed an Osceola County deputy tackling a man identified as Jean Barreto and filling his dirt bike with gas. An explosion occurred seconds later.

‘While being cooked alive, Mr Barreto sustained third degree burns on approximately 75% of his body, front and back from his feet to the bottom of his neck,’ said his lawyer Mark Nejame.
