The Metropolitan Police Department of Washington, D.C., said that Wynn Bruce, 50, of Boulder, Colorado, had died on Saturday from his injuries after being airlifted to a hospital following the incident. Members of his family could not be reached immediately for comment.
She later added that she was not completely certain of his intentions, but that"people are being driven to extreme amounts of climate grief and despair" and that"what I do not want to happen is that young people start thinking about self-immolation". The court had heard arguments in late February on an important environmental case that could restrict or even eliminate the Environmental Protection Agency's authority to control pollution.
