Four children were injured Friday night when an adult in their party poured an accelerant on a campfire at the Money Creek Haven Campground near Houston, in southeastern Minnesota.
One of them, a 4-year-old girl, was taken to Regions Hospital in St. Paul by helicopter, the Houston County Sheriff's Office reported.
A boy was taken by helicopter to Gundersen Lutheran Health System in La Crosse, Wis., and two other children were taken there by ambulance. The sheriff did not know the extent of their injuries.
