The incident comes weeks after an 11-year-old girl suffered second- and third-degree burns to her face and shoulders when her friends attempted the same challenge.
Jamoneisha “Jamoni” Merritt was hospitalized for 11 days. A 12-year-old was taken into custody in connection to Merritt’s case, but no charges have been filed in Conrad’s.
“I just want them to leave me alone,” he said. “They’re not my friends anymore and they’re not going to be. I’ve realized what friends are and how they act and those were never my friends.”
Conrad’s mother, Mickey, said that she was still in shock over the incident, and has begged other parents to warn their children about the dangers of online challenges.
