Police are looking for a man who was at an Otago house just before an explosion which led to two young men being seriously burnt on Monday. The two men, aged 18 and 19, were at a Mosgiel house, 15km west of Dunedin, sniffing gas - known as huffing - from an LPG bottle when it exploded, a Fire Service southern communications spokesman said on Monday. The men, the only people inside the house at the time, were taken to Dunedin Hospital with serious burns.
