Follow-up: Another teen burned due to "Hot Water Challenge"

Another teenager has been injured in the sickening "Hot Water Challenge," where friends dump scalding hot water on an unsuspecting person.

An Arkansas boy suffered first and second-degree burns after his friends allegedly heated up water in the microwave and tossed it on him while he was asleep at a friend's house on Sunday.

"During the night, 3 a.m., he woke up to boiling water having been poured on him," the teen's mom Mickey Conrad told Arkansas Matters.  Conrad said her 15-year-old son Nickolas was burned on his neck. She said the friends also used a hot cigarette lighter and burned the teen underneath his arm.
