Late last month, at a barbecue held by students and teachers at a beauty college in Yanagawa City, Fukuoka Prefecture, the clothes of four students were set on fire, and one of them died on the 4th. As the charcoal fire weakened, the teacher poured rubbing alcohol on it and it exploded, and the police are investigating the suspicion of manslaughter in the course of work.
According to the police, before 24 p.m. on the 1th of last month, four male students aged 500 to 18 were taken to the hospital after their clothes caught fire at a barbecue held at the Hollywood World Beauty College in Yanagawa City, Fukuoka Prefecture, with the participation of about 20 students and teachers.
Of these, one 4-year-old student died on the 18th.
The other three are not in danger of life.
According to the explanation of the beauty school, a male teacher said that the charcoal fire on the barbecue table was weakening and poured rubbing alcohol on it, which caused it to burst into flames.
In response to an interview, Iku Koga, president of Hollywood World Beauty College, said, "There was a lack of awareness of alcohol. In the future, I would like to sincerely face students and parents and be close to the bereaved families."
The police believe that there is a suspicion of manslaughter in the course of work, and are investigating the details of the situation by asking the school and participants about the situation at that time.
