(FASTNEWS|COLOMBO) – Flying lava has struck a tour boat in Hawaii, injuring 23 people, officials in the US state say.
An explosion sent rocks and debris hurtling through the air and through the roof of the tourist vessel.
One passenger broke a leg while others suffered burns. The authorities are investigating.
The lava is from Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano, which erupted in May and has been spewing out gas and molten rock ever since.
