Emergency crews and the RCMP went to Derby Reach Regional Park Tuesday afternoon for reports of an explosion and man burned.

Langley emergency crews went to the Derby Reach Park's river-front campground late Tuesday afternoon for reports of an explosion and potential brush fire with a man having sustained burns.
