He then allegedly walked to the train station, where he boarded an arriving car and executed his attack.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Immediately following the attack, Reed exited the train at the next stop in downtown Chicago, prosecutors said. The woman also stumbled out of the train and fell to the ground, and was subsequently transported to a hospital in critical condition after sustaining severe burns to her head and body, according to authorities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Reed was taken into custody on Tuesday morning with burn marks on his hand and wearing the same clothes as the suspect seen in surveillance footage carrying out the attack, the affidavit said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While in police custody, Reed allegedly made &#8220;repeated spontaneous and unprompted utterances,&#8221; including yelling, &#8220;burn b&#8212;-&#8221; and &#8220;burn alive b&#8212;-,&#8221; according to the affidavit.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, investigators recovered a partially melted bottle, clear liquid and lighter from the woman\u2019s train seat.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/chicago-repeat-offender-accused-punching-women-arrested-again-after-years-violent-crimes-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CHICAGO REPEAT OFFENDER ACCUSED OF PUNCHING WOMEN ARRESTED AGAIN AFTER YEARS OF VIOLENT CRIMES: REPORT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>He was subsequently turned over to federal authorities on Wednesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a news conference on Wednesday, prosecutors reviewed Reed\u2019s sprawling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/crime\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">criminal history<\/a> dating back to 2017, including a felony aggravated arson charge stemming from an alleged incident in which Reed was accused of starting a fire at the Thompson Center, where Gov.
