RAYMOND, Ill. (AP) — Three Cub Scouts and their adult leader have been injured after an experiment caused a chemical explosion in Montgomery County.
Raymond Mayor Dennis Held tells KSDK-TV the boys were having a meeting outside a church Monday evening when they conducted an annual experiment. The explosion occurred when they mixed boric acid and anti-freeze in a metal fire pit with the intention of making a green flame.
