And now, Preston and Steve's news update with Kathy Romano.

Today is Tuesday, January 25th. Good morning, Kathy.

Good morning in the news this morning. An 11-year-old boy was rushed to the hospital after

suffering burn injuries during a bonfire in South Jersey. It happened at a home in the 100 block of Ramblewood Parkway and Mount Laurel at about 6 p.m. Monday. Authorities say the child poured gasoline onto the burning bonfire in the backyard, which caused two explosions. It was louder than fireworks or gunshots had one neighbor who heard the blast from his

home. According to Mount Laurel Deputy Fire Chief Todd Evans, a teenager helped the young boy put the

flames out before he was taken to St. Christopher's Hospital for children in Philadelphia by medical

helicopter. A lot of credit is being given to the male teenager that was on the scene who got the

patient to go back outside to stop, drop,

and roll. And ultimately, the stop, drop, and roll was what extinguished the fire, said Evans.

The boy's condition is listed as serious. Officials want to remind residents to take proper

precautions when starting a bonfire. It's unclear who was with the child at the time of the

explosion. No other injuries were reported.

These ablations, yeah.

So two days, right?
