Michigan Man Drives Over A Mile On Fire After Meth Lab Explosion To Use Shower At Local Gym
A Michigan man caught fire after a meth lab explosion and drove over a mile to use the showers at his local Planet Fitness.
Authorities responded to a report of an explosion on Friday around 3:40pm in Shelby Township and upon arriving saw a man on fire fleeing the scene. The man exited the home where the explosion occurred, jumped in his car, and drove over a mile (while on fire) to his local Planet Fitness.
Upon arriving at the gym, the man ran inside and headed directly to the showers. This frightened many bystanders and the gym had to be evacuated. A HAZMAT team had to be called in to cleanup the gym after the man was arrested.
The man was rushed to a hospital where he was treated for severe burns. He is now in stable condition according to reports.
