A 9-year-old boy has been hospitalized after he was accidentally set on fire in the Cobb's Creek section of Philadelphia. The incident took place along the unit block of South Redfield Street. Police have stated that boy and his 10-year-old friend were playing with a lighter. The 9-year-old's shirt was then set on fire. He was then rushed to the hospital with multiple burns to his body.

U.S. Forest Service officials have now stated that they found the Pennsylvania man who has been missing in the Bob Marshall Wilderness in Montana since Monday. Rangers found 21-year-old David Hellmuth alive but in rough condition. Rangers say that Hellmuth was dehydrated, had injuries to his feet and was unable to walk. Hellmuth reportedly walked away from the campsite on Monday afternoon and hadn't been seen since. He was participating in a guide and packer school.

A 14-year-old girl was taken to the hospital after she fell 25 feet off of an amusement park on Saturday night. The girl was on the "Sky Ride" at Six Flags Great Escape in New York. Officials say that the girl was on the ride with her younger relative when she began to fall. Operators immediately stopped the ride. The girl dangled from the ride as she tried to climb back up into her seat, but was unable to. A group of workers and other people gathered underneath the girl, she then fell off the ride and was caught by the group. She was then taken to a local hospital with minor injuries and is reportedly in stable condition. Watch the video below.
