One of the boys moms, Goldie Moore, told the Record that her son, Santillo, was with friends at a party on Saturday night in the Middletown area when one of her sons friends suffered burns after falling into a bonfire.

Santillo and four other people got into a pick up truck to bring their friend to the hospital and that's when the accident took place on Route 6.
