Investigation Summary
At approximately 6:15 p.m. on February 26, 2003, two Long Beach Police officers along with some new recruits were involved in a training exercise in the yard of the shooting range of the Police Academy. The exercise was to fire under stress conditions created by detonating pyrotechnics. After a few pyrotechnics were detonated, the box containing the remaining pyrotechnics suddenly exploded. Employee #1 was standing nearby and suffered second degree burns on face, right hand and both legs. He was admitted to the Long Beach Memorial Medical Center where he was hospitalized for 5 days.
