Man charged with attempted murder after fiery fight

A 56 year old North Vancouver man is in serious condition in the Lions Gate Hospital burn unit after a drunk fight that went way too far.

Police say the man and another man got into a fight in the 700 block of Lillooet Road on Saturday after a day of heavy drinking
when the other man set him on fire with campfire fuel.

The man has severe burns to more than 50 per cent of his body and has been placed in a drug-induced coma.

A 34 year old man is facing charges of attempted murder.
