From Anderson Independent Mail in Anderson, South Carolina:

A 19 year old man and a 34 year old man were allegedly “huffing computer cleaner in a car from roughly five aerosol cans” when the 34 year old used a lighter in an attempt to smoke a cigarette.

The car windows blew out in the explosion. “Firefighters and law enforcement officials, a hazardous materials team and Medshore Ambulance Service were called to the area to investigate the sedan after the explosion.”

The 34 year old suffered “second-degree burns to his hands, face, legs and neck.” The 19 year old “suffered second-degree burns to his chest, neck and face.”

The police have not ruled out the possibility of charges being filed against the men.
