Original Note:
The armed man is likely US police, not an Israeli guard, as the uniform & the fact that this occurred on US soil suggest. Moreover first responders are seen extinguishing the fire, seeking to help the victim. The cop may have legitimately suspected a potential terror threat. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-immolation_of_Aaron_Bushnell
