DENVER (AP) - Authorities say four students have been burned and one suffered serious injuries after a fire erupted in a Denver high school chemistry lab during a demonstration involving methanol.<br />
<br />
School spokeswoman Lindsay Neil says three students were treated and released after the fire on Monday, and the other was transferred to another hospital because of the extent of the injuries.<br />
<br />
Neil says she doesn't yet have details on the injuries. Denver Fire Department spokesman Mark Watson says one student's injuries were serious.<br />
<br />
Neil says a teacher at the Science, Math and Arts Academy charter high school was using methanol in a demonstration. Officials say no students were handling any materials.<br />
<br />
Federal officials say methanol was involved in a fire at a Reno, Nevada, museum during a demonstration this month that injured 13 people.
