<div>My 55-year-old father, <strong>James George III</strong>, a native of the Bronx, New York, was set on fire on Monday, December 1, 2025. My father was a passenger on the Manhattan Subway Train when 18-year-old perpetrator, Hiram Carrero, tried to kill him by setting him on fire and leaving him for dead. This horrendous, heinous act of violence caused significant and life-threatening burns to his legs. My father's legs were so badly scorched that the police found charred skin on the train seat he was sitting in.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My father recently moved back to New York 2 months ago to make a better life for himself; however, trying to make it day to day became difficult, and he found himself on hard times. Too proud to turn to family for help, he found himself with no job and homeless. Although my father may have been homeless, he is a good man. No matter what his economic situation is, he is still a person and never deserved to have been treated in such an inhumane way and set on fire like a discarded piece of paper.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Due to the extent of his injuries, <strong>every second is touch and go as he fights to save his legs from being amputated, and is just praying to God to one day be able to walk again.</strong> He has a long road of medical recovery ahead of him and is in need of financial assistance. We are asking for your generosity and help during his time of suffering and need.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>UPDATE (12/20/25):
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So far, he has undergone 2 surgeries, one more successful than the other; unfortunately, due to the fire burning deep into the bones of his right leg, the medical journey ahead is going to be long, requiring several more surgeries and long-term care.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In spite of this vicious attack on him, which has been incomprehensible, and the road ahead looking challenging, he has been trying to keep his spirits up and is so thankful for the overwhelming support and prayers.  Through your acts of kindness he truly  see the good in this world still exist.
</div>
