Man Kills Self in NJ Hospital Restroom

Authorities say a man killed himself in a New Jersey hospital restroom after setting fire to his home.

The suicide occurred Monday afternoon inside Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Camden.

Camden County Prosecutor's Office spokesman Jason Laughlin told the South Jersey Times no one else was injured in the gunfire at the Camden hospital.

Laughlin was withholding additional information about the address, the man's name and the manner of death.

The man was not a patient at the hospital.
