A teenager who suffered severe burns in an accident near his home died at the hospital on Thursday, Jan. 18, after being taken off life support.
Investigators said that the teen, whose name they did not release, was trying to ignite some type of paper near his home with two others on the evening of Jan. 14, but when the paper did not burn fast enough, he threw a five gallon can of gasoline on the small fire. The gasoline exploded and he was left severely burned.
