Child attempted to create a fireball by passing gas and lighting it during class. Upon ignition, child's pants immediately combusted at the rear, burning the rest of his pants off. Prior to stunt, boy admits dousing underwear in gasoline for "ultimate comedic effect." He was released from hospital without injury.
Eric's father, Stephen Billups states: "I don't find it funny or cute, and he knows that. I have told him time and time again that it's my gasoline and to leave it alone. He doesn't listen or care, because he doesn't know how expensive gas is right now. Just the other day I gave him a gallon of premium and he wasted it all on God knows what. He's got another thing coming if he thinks he can just take my things and use it for shit like this."
