Two Boys Injured While Playing With Fire

Two Columbus boys are hospitalized with burns sustained Monday when they accidentally set their clothes on fire inside of their West side home. Police say a three-year-old boy was trying to light a candle with a lighter. His four-year-old brother ran to help, but his clothes also caught fire. Investigators say the boys' parents were sleeping when the incident happened at the home on Oakley Avenue.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
