A 14-year-old boy from Żebbuġ was seriously injured yesterday morning when a firecracker he was playing with in his hometown exploded in his hand.

The police said the incident took place at about 9.30 a.m. when the boy and another 13-year-old boy were playing with Chinese crackers in Vjal il-Ħelsien.

The firecracker exploded and the older boy sustained fractures, the police said.

The younger of the two boys, also from Żebbuġ, was uninjured.

Where did this kid buy the firecracker? Whoever it was deserves jail time.
