Finally she arrived at the fire brigade and managed to extinguish the flame, but it was tragically too delayed for Nolan. He suffers from extensive burns covering 65% of his body, died in the hospital the next day, and his injuries turned out to be fatal.
Investigators confronted with an immediate challenge when they tried to determine the origin of the fire. Unexpectedly, they did not seem to touch any other objects or structures nearby.


Neither the pavement nor the nearby fence showed any signs of the burner or burning. In addition, no traces of flammable substances or accelerations were found on Nolan's body, eliminating the possibility of external causes.

The testimonies of eyewitnesses did not provide any evidence for any interaction or quarrel from ignition, excluding the possibility of intentional damage caused by another person.
