A 14-year-old Joshua Tree boy suffered second degree burns to his face following an explosion of gunpowder Sunday morning. According to a Sheriff’s report, the teen didn’t realize what he was doing when he was “playing with gun powder” in the 64800 block of Chollita Road shortly after 8 a.m. and lit it on fire. The powder then “blew up” in the boys face. The boy was taken to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center.
