Boy critical after burning by lime ( 2003-08-06 10:41) (China Daily)
A boy, 10, who fell into a pool of lime on Sunday was burned over more than
60 per cent of his body.
The boy was playing with some other children when he slipped into one of the
10 pools of lime boiling on the grounds of a factory in the Minhang
District.
Although he was pulled out by two workers, he had lapsed into coma.
The factory has never posted any warning signs on the premises. Doctors say
the boy is still in critical condition.
