A 4-year-old boy was hospitalized on Saturday after an explosion at a children’s museum outside of Oklahoma City, according to NBC affiliate KFOR.

The boy was rushed to an Oklahoma City hospital after being injured at the Jasmine Moran Children’s Museum in Seminole, Oklahoma, KFOR reported.

The museum confirmed the “unfortunate incident” in a statement on Saturday, writing that “during a hands-on activity,” the boy suffered from a “burn injury.”
