FOUR pupils suffered from nausea and dizziness after they are believed to have inhaled gas from a leaking bunsen burner at SRK USJ 14 in Subang Jaya today.

Selangor Fire and Rescue Department director Norazam Khamis said the incident happened at about 1.20pm when the Year 5 pupils were conducting experiments in the school laboratory.

He said the four were sent to Shah Alam Hospital and all of them were reported to be in stable condition.

He said firefighters were sent to the school to ensure it was safe and the environment free from leaking gas.

In a separate incident, Norazam said an 18-year-old teenager was injured in a gas explosion at a restaurant in Jalan Bidara, Saujana Utama 3, Sungai Buloh, at about 12.30pm yesterday.

He said a cooking gas leak was believed to have caused the explosion and a small fire that destroyed 30% of the premises.

The victim was treated for burns at the Puncak Alam Hospital, he said. – Bernama, June 21, 2022.
