WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Wichita firefighters say two men have been hospitalized after a house fire.
Authorities say the men were using a welding torch to work on plumbing in the crawl space beneath the home. They say a propane tank ignited.
One man suffered second-degree burns to his hands and the other had unspecified burns to his face. Their identities haven’t been released and their conditions are unclear.
The fire caused about $5,500 in damage to the home.
