As Granbury Police Department reported, 37-year-old female put hand sanitizer in 12-year old students hand and lit the sanitizer on fire. This meant to be a science experiment, and it led to possible third-degree burns of a teen.

Granbury police found out that this experiment had been done multiple times with other students with no dangerous consequences to their health, CBS Dallas / Fort Worth reports.
