A Muslim woman -- dressed in traditional Islamic clothing -- was set on fire in an incident on September 10 in New York City, the Salon website reports today (September 13, 2016).
The NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating the attack as a possible hate crime.
The woman, Nemariq Alhinai, a 35-year-old dentist, was visiting the U.S. from Glasgow, Scotland.
Alhinai was window shopping in midtown Manhattan when she felt her left arm burning. She put out the fire and saw a man next to her holding a lighter, police said.
