BBQ Too Hot to Handle for Durant Saturday, October 16th , 2004 Lions starting pitcher Justice Durant required medical attention yesterday after severely burning himself while barbecuing at his home. Durant suffered first and second degree burns when a flame from the grill he was using suddenly shot up his right arm. "It was a pretty scary scene," said teammate Rick Anderson, who was with Durant when the accident occurred. "I thought it was going to totally engulf him for a moment." The fire also singed Justice Durant's hair and eyebrows, but luckily failed to ignite the shirt he was wearing at the time. "It honestly could have been much worse," said Anderson. The injury will reportedly keep Durant out of action for anywhere from 3 weeks up to a month, but doctors expect the burns to fully heal. |
