Six Wofford College students were injured, four requiring surgery, after an explosion on campus Thursday night, school officials said.
The incident happened at one of the houses at the Stewart H. Johnson Greek Village on Evins Street on Wofford’s campus in South Carolina.
Wofford officials said an aerosol can placed too close to gas grill exploded around 7:40 p.m., causing burns to the 6 students.
Officials said four of the students were transported to the Joseph M. Still Burn Center in Augusta, GA – one by helicopter and 3 by ambulance. All four underwent surgery on Friday. Their conditions have not yet been released. The remaining two students sustained minor injuries and were released after being treated at Spartanburg Medical Center’s emergency department. Those students returned to campus Thursday night, said school officials. source
