This article is the PC version but on the radio they said the attackers were black and the victim was white.

quote:Kansas City police are investigating an after-school assault during which a teenager was burned when one of his assailants ignited a can of gasoline.
The 13-year-old victim told police that two older teens followed him from East High School on Tuesday afternoon to his house in the 2200 block of Quincy Avenue. As he was attempting to unlock the front door, one of the assailants grabbed him in a bear hug, he told police.
The second suspect picked up a can of gasoline and said, "This is what you get," according to police reports.
The suspect pulled out a lighter, and when the boy tried to grab the can from the suspect, it dropped to the ground, spilling gasoline. The suspect then lit the gasoline, producing a "fireball," according to the reports. The victim's face was burned and his hair was singed. The suspects ran away.
The boy was taken to Children's Mercy Hospital for treatment.
Kansas City Police Detective Stacey Taylor said the victim did not know the assailants and did not know why they attacked him.
He said one of the suspects was wearing a blue hat, a blue jacket and blue/green tennis shoes with the number 23 on them.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-8477.
