A nine year old who was severely burned when he poured gas on a bush and then lit it on fire is recovering in a Florida burn center.
The boy is currently in the intensive care unit of the hospital and is expected to make a full recovery. While his injuries are not life threatening, the risk of infection is still high. The boy is currently being tube fed and is on a breathing machine after suffering burns to his face.
The boy’s parents are anxious that their son make a recovery. The father does not understand why his son, apparently an excellent student, decided to pour gas on a bush and then light it.

A severely burned man is being questioned by police as to the cause of his injuries.
When the South Carolina man showed up at a hospital with severe burns, he initially told doctors that he had been burned while burning trash. Unfortunately, doctors feel that his burns are more from the result of chemical burns. A woman treated with similar injuries is being questioned as well.
Police in the area are of the impression that the chemical burns were the result of an explosion in a methamphetamine lab. The lab was reportedly housed in a mobile home and burned last week.
