Authorities Investigating Burning Death Of Man At WeHo Halloween Carnaval

Authorities are looking for answers in the death of a man who caught fire during the West Hollywood Halloween Carnaval last Thursday.

Gilbert Estrada, 51, succumbed to his injuries at 10:30 a.m. the following morning at Cedars Sinai Medical Center, according to his brother, Pablo Estrada. He was with his girlfriend at the event and was dressed as an army sniper.

"When it first happened, people thought it was part of the show," Pablo Estrada told LAist. "When people realized what was going on, they started putting out the flames and emergency personnel took him to the hospital."

As of right now, the cause of the fire is unknown. A video on YouTube showed the grim scene, and party-goers around Estrada are heard laughing and heckling him as he lay motionless on the ground.

Estrada described his brother as an outgoing person who had attended the Carnaval every Halloween for several years. The family has set up a GoFundMe account to raise money for Gilbert Estrada's funeral costs.

there appears to be an accelerant involved

I'm not a fire expert


but the way it ignited rapidly and the way the flames, and clothing responded when others were 'fanning the flames' trying to help( the few who did seem to try, albeit not very effectively)



Odd, if he was wearing a complete camo outfit, as it is not a hunting scene, or a range...and I do not. see others wearing costumes


nor Rave wear


no glow sticks



very few water bottles either....no binkies



Perhaps he was passed out wearing camo pants...drunk???


and someone placed some alcohol, or doused him...then let a cig drop on him


racial crime cannot be excluded either...


The whole scene shows how PROFOUNDLY ignorant many are

I don't know what is more disturbing, the guy on fire or the bystanders cheering and saying "get it on camera!" instead of helping the guy.

Humanity is so desensitized all most people could think to do was record a man on fire like it was for their amusement. It took a few seconds for people to run and help him, everyone else was just recording and cheering.

I'm not entirely buying that! I could see for 1/2 a second wondering if it's part of the show but a man running around on fire is well, a man on fire.
