Burning Man skydiver killed in Paris attacks
By Jenny Kane, Reno Gazette-Journal
The Burning Man community lost one of its own in the Paris attacks on Friday.
Pierro Jacare Innocenti, 40, of Paris, was killed when gunmen stormed the sold-out Eagles of Death Metal show that Innocenti was attending at the Bataclan Concert Hall. Innocenti posted a photo on his Facebook page of the concert billboard with the comment “Rock!” at 8:45pm, less than an hour before three gunmen gunned down 89 people at the venue.
During the weekend, Burners remembered Innocenti by posting photos on social media of Innocenti along with photos of notes to Innocenti left at candlelit memorials in Paris. Some of the notes reading “Pour toi Pierro” had the Burning Man insignia, a stick figure-like interpretation of the Burning Man, and some read “dusty hugs” and “In Dust We Trust.”
