Odawara, Ramadan 13, 1436, Jun 30, 2015, SPA -- A man set himself on fire on a high-speed bullet train in Japan on Tuesday, killing himself and another passenger as the coach filled with smoke, a fire official said. At least 26 other people were injured, three seriously, mostly from smoke inhalation, AP quoted Odawara Fire Department official Ikutaro Torii as saying. The man's motive wasn't clear. The passenger poured an oil-like substance over his head before setting himself on fire, authorities said. Officials said the fire was at the front of the first car of the train, which was heading from Tokyo to Osaka. --SPA 17:13 LOCAL TIME 14:13 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
