'I Screamed': Woman, Toddler Suffer 3rd-Degree Burns From Charcoal Buried in Sand

  • An explosion on a 39-foot Sea Ray boat occurred Monday near the Intracoastal Waterway in Fort Lauderdale, injuring 11 people including two boys aged 5 and 7.
  • The blast resulted from ignited fuel vapors during an attempt to fuel the boat, causing a quick fireball and the rapid spread of flames.
  • The two children suffered extensive burns, with the 7-year-old burned over 80% of his body and the 5-year-old over 40%, and are being treated at Ryder Trauma Center.
  • Sylvia Rivera, the boys' grandmother, said the children may remain hospitalized for three to five months and a GoFundMe page was created to cover medical costs.
  • The family faces a long recovery with multiple surgeries expected, and Rivera urged prayers while expressing hope that the boys improve sooner than doctors expect.
