A 36-year-old Scottish tourist wearing traditional Muslim garb had her blouse set on fire in a bizarre incident outside a pricey Midtown boutique, police sources said Monday.

The victim was able to douse the flames on the sleeve of her blouse and was not hurt in the Saturday night incident, just hours before the Sept. 11 ceremony marking 15 years since the terror attack.

But the suspect got away, and the NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is trying to determine if it was motivated by bias toward Muslims.

Thank you Nehru for pointing out that due to Trump  we are seeing more attacks on  uslims.

Some people get personal satisfaction for blaming others for their woes. It's advisable to apply common principles in your everyday life that will enable you to confront your fears logically without feeling guilty for your mistakes. Old people say, you mouth can take you places that you foot can't get you out.

It seems NYERS are getting more intolerant to people who look foreign. This could be the start of a grave disaster!!!!!!!!!!

A grave disaster, thank you Nehru for pointing this out.

God bless America, this is a great country however it's sad to see an increase of  attack on Muslims, setting a lady on fire is just not right.

innocent pay for the guilty. It's unfortunate that we have those guilty who sympathize with terrorists which causes backlash against innocents.  The deplorables are those sympathizers not those reacting.

That being said, I hope they catch the culprit.
